ILIAD - Oceanographic data of Perigiali Buoy

The Perigiali Buoy, deployed in the North Aegean Sea, serves as a critical in-situ observation platform within the ILIAD project’s Oil Spills – Aegean Digital Twin. Equipped with oceanographic sensors, the buoy provides continuous measurements of oceanographic sea surface temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, TDS, currents, and waves conditions. This high-resolution, real-time data supports the satellite-based oil spill detection system by supplying ground-truth environmental parameters for validating anomalies detected on Sentinel-1 imagery. Moreover, the buoy’s measurements feed into hydrodynamic and oil spill trajectory models, improving the accuracy of forecasts for spill movement under changing wave, and current conditions. Integrated with the Oceancast visualization platform and the ILIAD Marketplace, Perigiali Buoy data contributes to near real-time situational awareness, enabling authorities, environmental agencies, and stakeholders to respond rapidly and effectively to oil spill incidents in the North Aegean.

Sparker seismic profiles (67 to 70b) in the Ceuta canyon region

Sparker seismic profiles profiles in order to define the main geohazard features in the Ceuta canyon region.  The GRACE cruise aimed to study the geological risks associated to the Ceuta Canyon and its adjacent areas onboard the R/V Belgica (RBINSOD Nature, Belgium). The GRACE cruise pursued two main objectives: to better understand the Ceuta Canyon, including its origins, influence of tectonic features, and chronostratigraphy of the deposits; and to study the potential hazardous geological and oceanographic processes occurring in the Ceuta Canyon and adjacent areas.
REMP project - Global distribution of seamounts

In supplement to: Yesson, C et al. (2011): The global distribution of seamounts based on 30-second bathymetry data. Deep Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers, 58(4), 442-453, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.dsr.2011.02.004
This data set has been used as one of the data inputs in the Atlantic REMP project. This project, funded by the European Union, worked together with stakeholders to produce a draft Regional Environmental Management Plan (REMP) for the Area in the North Atlantic, with a focus on the polymetallic sulphide deposits of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge which are of interest for deep-sea mining. There was close collaboration with the International Seabed Authority (ISA) and a consortium of scientific organisations. Marine data from multiple data services underpinned the environmental management plan development. A selection of the data sets is included in EMODnet Ingestion for wider distribution.
Habitats and Biotopes in the German Baltic Sea

The dataset provides full-coverage maps of the habitats and biotopes in the German Baltic Sea at a resolution of 1 x 1 km for the entire region and at 50 x 50 m resolution in specific areas. We combined geological and biological surveys to map the seabed and collected extensive data to classify different habitats and their associated benthic communities. Using newly established national guidelines and predictive habitat modelling, we produced highly accurate maps. The maps show Broad and Other Habitat Types (including Habitats Directive Annex I habitat types) according to the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) as well as HELCOM HUB biotope types. Detailed documentation is available at: https://doi.org/10.3390/biology13010006

Data from Eurofleets+ PHYCOB cruise-Part I: CTD + nutrient data

Data were collected in the southern Western Black Sea (Bulgarian and Romanian territorial waters) for the Eurofleets+ PHYCOB cruise. 

This submission contains CTD and nutrient data. 
The main scientific objectives of the research cruise are: 1) To assess the presence of toxic microalgae in the plankton assemblage of the Western Black Sea. 2) To quantitatively determine the spatial distribution of toxic phytoplankton species and their corresponding toxins in the plankton. 3) To quantitatively describe the spatial distribution of toxic phytoplankton resting stages in surface sediments and determine hotspots of recruitment and bloom initiation. 4) To define correlations among hydrographic and/or meteorological conditions and occurrence of HAB species. 5) To characterize the plankton communities accompanying HAB species together with toxin analysis of size fractionated samples. 6) To identify heterotrophic dinoflagellates, ciliates, or other small zooplankton as possible toxin vectors. 7) To isolate toxic Black Sea microalgal species and establish monoclonal cultures for characterization of Black Sea strains. 8) To perform an interseasonal comparison of toxigenic plankton species by combining the data sets collected during the R/V Akademik cruise that was performed in May/June 2019 with our data from summer. 9) To compare the data set from the Western Black Sea to the Southern (North-) Western North Sea, Baltic Sea and West Greenland obtained during earlier expeditions for site comparisons.

MEPA Coastal Water Survey - Pollutants in Biota 2012

The survey was conducted at 26 stations in the coastal waters of the Maltese Islands. The pollutant levels were measured during a pilot survey and then once (in two replicates) over the period between 30th May 2012 and 7th August 2012. During the surveys, samples of P. oceanica were collected from representative areas along the Maltese coast, and shipped to a laboratory in Italy for analysis according to the following procedures: UNI EN 15763:2010 (for Mercury); UNI EN 15662:2009 (for Hexachlorobenzene); EPA 5021A 2003 + EPA 8260C 2006 (for Hexachlorobutadiene). The measurements were made in connection with a monitoring survey of Maltese coastal waters. The resultant datasets generated provide the benchmark for long term monitoring programs and assessments that are required to implement EU Directives on water resources.
REMP project - Ridge geomorphic feature

The ridge geomorphic feature layer represents the spatial extent of the ridges of the worlds oceans based on interpretation of the SRTM30 plus v7 global bathymetry model. The layer is one of the 25 layers that make up the global seafloor geomorphic features map (Harris et.al. 2014). Ridges in this study are confined to “an isolated (or group of) elongated narrow elevation(s) of varying complexity having steep sides, often separating basin features” (IHO 2008). In this study “ridges” were confined to features greater than 1,000 m in relief and do not include the mid-ocean ridges, which was mapped as a separate feature.
This data set has been used as one of the data inputs in the Atlantic REMP project. This project, funded by the European Union, worked together with stakeholders to produce a draft Regional Environmental Management Plan (REMP) for the Area in the North Atlantic, with a focus on the polymetallic sulphide deposits of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge which are of interest for deep-sea mining. There was close collaboration with the International Seabed Authority (ISA) and a consortium of scientific organisations.

Modeled distribution map of Solenosmilia variabilis reef in the North East Atlantic in 2021

Species distribution models (GAM, Maxent and Random Forest ensemble) predicting the distribution of Solenosmilia variabilis reef assemblage in the Celtic Sea. This community is considered ecologically coherent according to the cluster analysis conducted by Parry et al. (2015) on image sample. Modelling its distribution complements existing work on their definition and offers a representation of the extent of the areas of the North East Atlantic where they can occur based on the best available knowledge. This work was performed at the University of Plymouth in 2021.
Studies of seafloor bedforms formed by the Mediterranean Outflow Water in the Gulf of Cadiz (A)

Photogram of seafloor displaying different types of bedforms affecting sandy deposits in the continental slope of the Gulf of Cadiz, just downstream of the Strait of Gibraltar. These bedforms are formed by the action of the Mediterranean Outflow Water which produces a complex patterns of bedforms from decametre to centimetre scales on the seafloor and remain poorly understood
