Welcome to EMODnet - Physical Parameters

The European Commission, represented for the purposes of this project by the Directorate-General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (DG MARE), is conducting service contracts for creating pilot components of the European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODNET). The overall objective is to create pilots to migrate fragmented and inaccessible marine data into interoperable, continuous and publicly available data streams for complete maritime basins observation. The final objective is to provide layers of physical data and metadata available for use by public authorities, scientists and industry, and contribute towards the definition of an operational European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODNET) and contribute to developing of the definition of the Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) marine core service.

This EMODNET-Physical Parameters Portal is one of the EMODNET portals and it is aimed at providing access to archived and real-time data catalog on the physical conditions in Europe's seas and oceans.

This portal is being developed and operated in a cooperation between EuroGOOS, its Regions, SeaDataNet and MyOcean. It provides access to an increasing number of Near Real Time and Archived data series from all fixed metocean monitoring stations and Ferry Box lines in European seas.
