Hindcast of oil-spill pollution during the Lebanon crisis in the Eastern Mediterranean, July-August 2006
(2011)
MOON (Mediterranean Operational Oceanography Network http://www.moon-oceanforecasting.eu) provides near-real-time information on oil-spill detection (ocean color and SAR) and predictions [ocean forecasts (MFS and CYCOFOS) ...
Design of a prototype tsunami warning and early response system for Cyprus - TWERC
(2010)
Described is the expansion of an existing and operational ocean observatory known as CYCOFOS (Cyprus Coastal Ocean Forecasting and Observing System), with a network of tsunami detection sensors. The expanded network will ...
Mediterranean sea surface temperature rise in the period 1985-2008
(Middle East Technical University, 2009)
Increases in sea surface temperatures (SSTs) have been reported to occur globally over the past two decades. Here we analyze SST records from satellite data for the period 1985-2008 for the entire Mediterranean Sea, the ...
Climate change impacts on sea surface temperature in the eastern mediterranean, levantine basin
(2013)
Increases in sea surface temperatures (SSTs) have been recorded to occur globally, with the Mediterranean SSTs rising about twice as much as those of the global oceans. Here we analyse and compare satellite remote sensing ...
Tentative study of flow patterns in the North Aegean Sea using NOAA-AVHRR images and 2D model simulation
(1996)
A statistical technique for image processing, the maximum cross correlation (MCC) method, was utilized on sequences of NOAA-AVHRR thermal data in order to explore the surface advective current dynamics at the discharge ...
Wave energy potential in the Eastern Mediterranean Levantine Basin. An integrated 10-year study
(2014)
The main characteristics of wave energy potential over Eastern Mediterranean Levantine Basin, an area of increased interest for energy resources exploration/exploitation, is presented in this work. In particular, an ...
Operational ocean forecasting in the Eastern Mediterranean: Implementation and evaluation
(2008)
The Cyprus Coastal Ocean Forecasting and Observing System (CYCOFOS) has been producing operational flow forecasts of the northeastern Levantine Basin since 2002 and has been substantially improved in 2005. CYCOFOS uses the ...
An operational European global ocean observing system for the eastern Mediterranean Levantine Basin: The Cyprus Coastal Ocean Forecasting and Observing System
(2003)
The countries surrounding the Mediterranean Sea have joined together in several multinational initiatives to conduct long-term, integrated, operational oceanographic observations and modelling of this important region. ...
High resolution nested model for the Cyprus, NE Levantine Basin, eastern Mediterranean Sea: Implementation and climatological runs
(2003)
A high resolution nested flow model for the coastal, shelf and open sea areas of the Cyprus Basin, NE Levantine, eastern Mediterranean Sea is implemented to fulfil the objectives of the Mediterranean Forecasting System ...
The Cyprus Coastal Ocean Forecasting and Observing System
(2003)
The countries surrounding the Mediterranean Sea have joined together in several multi-national initiatives to conduct long-term, integrated, operational oceanographic observations and modelling of this important region. A ...
