ACRONYM
UpperDyn
Title
UpperDyn: Upper Ocean Dynamics
General information
The main objectives of the “Ocean Science Cluster – Research Opportunity: Upper Ocean Dynamic” project are to : - develop and validate innovative methods based on the huge synergistic opportunities offered by the increasing EO European satellites and specially the data provided by the Sentinel missions, together with in-situ observations and novel AI and ML technologies to improve the data-driven reconstruction of the upper ocean dynamics in three distinct dynamical areas of the Equatorial and North Atlantic Ocean: the equatorial and tropical band, the mid-latitudes and the Arctic seas - exploit this newly developed products together with other information and tools and a multi-disciplinary approach to Science to address high impact scientific questions in the targeted areas and contribute filling major scientific gaps in our understanding of the ocean and its role in the Earth Climate system.
