Marine environmental monitoring is undertaken to provide evidence that environmental
management targets are being met. Moreover, monitoring also provides context to marine …

Understanding the water circulation in oceans and coastal seas is among the key topics of
oceanographic and climate research. Hydrodynamic studies form the basis for many …

Ocean observations are the foundation of our understanding of ocean processes. Improving
these observations has critical implications for our ability to sustainably derive food from the …

Coastal ocean observing and modeling systems (coastal observatories), connected with
regional and global ocean systems, improve the quality of information and forecasts for …

The oceanographic forecast capability in coastal seas is often limited by the capacity of the
numerical models in correctly reproducing the complex morphology of the coastline and the …

In the last decade, an enormous amount of georeferenced oceanographic data, co-located
with catch information, have been collected through the use of commercial fishing vessels …

While the observation of the open ocean is well achieved by automated ocean
measurement instruments, coastal and shelf seas suffer the lack of sub-surface collection …

The aim of the paper is to assess the accuracy for physical oceanography purposes of some
commercial sensors (Star-Oddi and NKE) installed on fishing boats in the Adriatic Sea …

This document describes the dataset of depth (pressure)/temperature profiles collected by
means of the AdriFOOS infrastructure in the period 2012–2020 and briefly illustrates the …
