Development of advanced instrumentation for operational oceanography [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on Modelling and Simulation, Vol 46, 2007
Operational oceanography is an applied science requiring new instrumentation to perform cost effective surveys. The use of XBT probes from Voluntary Observing Ships is a good way to obtain temperature profiles, but it is limited by the cost of the probes and of the operators on board. An automatic multiple XBT launcher was developed, to work unattended

Long-Term (1979–2024) Variation Trend in Wave Power in the South China Sea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Wave power (WP) is a strategic oceanic resource. Previous studies have extensively researched the long-term variations in WP in the South China Sea (SCS) for energy planning and utilization. This study extends the analysis of long-term trends to the last

Spatiotemporal characteristics and mechanisms of upper water exchange between the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal in the North Indian Ocean

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
The distribution of upper water masses and water exchange processes in the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal have important implications for the dynamics, thermal structure, and associated air-sea interactions in the North Indian Ocean.

Operational oceanography in France : the Coriolis project [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
An operational oceanographic system is being developed in France to monitor and forecast ocean behavior. It is composed of three projects: - Sea-surface observation using satellite sensors, - ln situ measurements from ships, moored or drifting autonomous systems, - Assimilation of in-situ and satellite data in an ocean circulation modal.
