FP7 - MYWAVE project
Programme: FP7-SPACE-2011-1
Project Title: MyWave: A pan-European concerted and integrated approach to operational wave modelling and forecasting – a complement to GMES MyOcean services
Acronym: MyWave
Duration: 2012-2014
Total budget : € 2.973.896,00
Web site: http://mywave.eu/
Summary:
The main goal of MyWave is to lay the foundation for a future Marine Core Service that includes ocean waves.
The proposal has identified four target areas where concerted research is needed to establish a high quality GMES Marine Core Service for ocean waves:
- increase the use of earth observations by improving data processing algorithms and data assimilation systems,
- improve the physics in current wave models and provide a framework for coupled model systems (atmosphere/waves/ocean),
- establish a new standard for probabilistic wave forecasts based on ensemble methods,
- derive standard protocols for validation products.
