20 Iceberg Map Polar View imagery tracks ice shelf calving triggered by Japan s earthquake and tsunami Recent satellite photos from the European Space Agency show huge icebergs were created when the Japanese tsunami hit West Antarctica's Sulzberger Ice Shelf. This caused 125 sq km of ice to break off - or calve - from a shelf front that has remained stable for the past 46 years. Kartdata 2014 Google Bilder 2014 TerraMetrics Active Icebergs Currently, there are no active icebergs. In the meantime, check out what the map looked like on these days: May 30 June 5 June 10 June 22 June 28
21 ICEMAR -- a GMES Pilot Sea Ice Service for Maritime Operations Objective - establish a pilot down-stream GMES sea ice information service to improve access to existing and new ice information products to aid ships navigating near or within ice-infested waters in the European Arctic (primarily the Greenland and Barents Seas) and the Baltic Sea. Shall build on existing ice service elements including GMES services and projects, national/ regional institutional and commercial services and will be established in an open and expansible way to facilitate the easy inclusion of additional information services and coverage of new geographical regions in the future.
22 ICEMAR is developing an integrated solution to deliver sea ice information products onboard
23 POLAR ICE POLAR ICE - A new single point of entry web portal Why? Significant interest in Arctic resource development and increased demand for non-standard ice and situational awareness (e.g. new shipping lanes, year-round station-keeping) POLAR ICE s overall aim: To establish an operational end-to-end operational sea ice information service by integrating /building on existing national and European funded infrastructure and capabilities The development of new products/techniques and services (like sea ice pressure) to meet known gaps in current provision POLAR ICE will be driven by the requirements of end users operating in ice infested polar waters reducing risks for shipping and offshore operators reducing the risk of environmental damage reducing costs providing information that will also be useful for the climate change monitoring community POLAR ICE will also: Transfer products and services to the Arctic and Antarctic that are currently tested and available in the Baltic Sea Ensure all ice products are Sentinel ready Provide a full assessment of the economic sustainability and technical merit of the information products and integrated service The project team includes 14 World leading organisations in the field of satellite remote sensing applied to sea ice monitoring and forecasting; all of whom are part of the Polar View network.

The main objective is to prepare the evolutions of Argo floats for the next decade. MyWave ( / FP7) A pan-european concerted and integrated approach to operational wave modelling and forecasting a complement to Copernicus Marine Monitoring services The project aims to review and propose service level and coordination requirements for a pan- European wave service complementing the Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service developed by MyOcean / MyOcean2, and thus allowing end users to access a complete view of the physical marine environment. SANGOMA ( / EC FP7) Stochastic Assimilation for the Next Generation Ocean Model Applications SANGOMA works on new developments in data assimilation and prepares them so that future operational systems can use state-of-the-art data-assimilation and related analysis tools. The project builds on a European network of expert teams in advanced data assimilation which will extend existing modular data assimilation systems and will allow for efficient operational testing of the latest data assimilation methods. OPEC ( / EC FP7) OPerational ECology: Ecosystem forecast products to enhance marine Copernicus applications OPEC aims to improve the quality of operational services for biogeochemical and ecological parameters and, in turn, our ability to protect the future status of European marine ecosystems.
28 CoBios ( / EC FP7) Coastal Biomass Observatory Services Using a combination of satellite images and ecological models, which describe and predict ecological processes and distributions of organisms phytoplankton, nutrients and dissolved oxygen, CoBiOS intends to monitor and predict high biomass blooms in coastal waters along Europe s Northern and Baltic shores. MAIRES ( / EC FP7) Monitoring Arctic Land and Sea Ice using Russian and European Satellites MAIRES will develop new methods for mapping of sea ice, icebergs and glaciers in the Arctic. By joint analysis of high-resolution images from European and Russian satellites obtained in the last decades, it is expected to obtain significant new knowledge about ice in the Arctic. SeaU ( / EC FP7) Multisensor Satellite Technologies for Oil Pollution Monitoring and Source Identification The overall aim of SeaU is to improve the current state-of-the-art methodology for satellite based oil spill detection and monitoring, and demonstrate through deliveries to existing and new users how these improvements can contribute to the development of a next generation sustainable downstream service. SIDARUS ( / EC FP7) Sea Ice Downstream Services for Arctic and Antarctic Users and Stakeholders Polar regions are strongly affected by climate change: temperature is increasing, sea ice is retreating during the sum and land ice decreases. SIDARUS seeks to establish a set of sea ice services for climate research, marine safety and environmental monitoring in the Arctic and Antarctic regions.
29 OSS2015 ( / EC FP7) Ocean Strategic Services 2015 The OSS2015 project aims to carry out R&D activities for the development of new and innovative marine biogeochemistry products and services.

30 What makes Copernicus so special compared to other Earth observation programmes worldwide? Philippe Brunet: A complex set of systems which collect data from multiple sources - mainly Earth observation satellites and in sensors. Copernicus processes these data and provides reliable and up-to-date information through a set of services related to environment and security. How does Copernicus fit into the overall EU policy framework? Philippe Brunet: Copernicus will benefit a wide range of Union policies and contribute to reaching the objectives of Europe 202 will support the development of an effective European space policy which provides the tools to address some the key challenges the European Union has to face, in the areas of the environment and civil security. The programme will boost research, innovation and the development of commercial applications ( downstream services ), thanks to a full and open access to Copernicus observation data and information products. ESA: Who will benefit from the programme and how? Philippe Brunet: Main users are European policymakers and national, regional and local public authorities. They need relevant information to develop environmental legislation and policies or to take critical decisions in the event of an emergency, such as a natural disaster or a humanitarian crisis. Applications bringing socio-economic benefits to European citizens include environment protection, managem of urban areas, agriculture, forestry, fisheries, health, transport, climate change, sustainable development, civ protection and tourism. The principle of full, free and open access to data will enable innovative business initiatives of all sizes to flour and therefore will support job creation and economic growth in. Over the next three years, seven Copernicusdedicated satellites, the Sentinels, are planned to be launched. The programme must continue to meet evolvin users needs and expectations.
