Notes: "The European Commission ... has launched a large integrated project, Ocean Margin EXchange (OMEX, http://www.pol.ac.uk/bodc/omex/omex.html), designed to meet the priority goals of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme, which takes into account the specific features of the European marine environments and settings, and the expertise of the oceanographic community in the EU countries. It concerns essentially the study of ocean margin fluxes and processes along European shelf break facing the North Atlantic Ocean."--[P. 2971].

"During the phase I of the OMEX project carried out from 1993 to 1997, the northern Gulf of Biscay was selected as the study site."--P. 2972.
