The document discusses the ARGOMARINE project, which aims to develop an integrated system for monitoring ship traffic and oil pollution in environmentally sensitive areas. The project involves developing and integrating technologies like sensors, buoys, aerial and satellite imaging to detect and locate potential oil spills. Data is analyzed using mathematical models and weather forecasts through a Marine Information System. The project focuses on protecting areas like the Tuscan Archipelago National Park in Italy, which experiences heavy ship traffic along oil transport routes.
This workshop addresses how citizen advocacy is resulting in cleaner water in the Great Lakes by reducing combined sewer overflows and reducing pollution from Detroit’s sewage treatment plant. Participants will help develop stories and effective strategies to encourage support from the city, sewer agency, regulators, and political leaders. This power point was given by Katie Rousseau, Associate Director, American Rivers.

Human impacts of the motorways of the seaDavid March
Maritime transport plays an important role in the world trade and economics development. In Europe the “motorways on the sea” concept has been an important issue since the launch of the EU Transport white paper (EC 2001). An enclosed sea such as the Mediterranean is particularly vulnerable to ship-associated pressures due to a high-volume of shipping routes, long history of use, and sensitive shallow and deep-sea habitats. Negative impacts associated to maritime traffic include biodiversity loss, introduction of alien species, pollution, marine litter and underwater noise among others. The monitoring and characterization of the spatio-temporal patterns of marine traffic constitutes an important element for the effective management and assessment of environmental impacts of this activity.
Monitoring of real-time ship locations can be achieved through the Automated Identification System (AIS). The AIS is a VHF transmitter that broadcast the ship position, as well as additional information (eg. timestamp, speed, heading, boat type). All ocean-going commercial traffic >300 gross tons, or carrying more than 165 passengers, as well as tug/tows, are required to carry AIS transmitters (IALA 2004). In addition, the rest of the ships are able to carry on these transmitters on a voluntary basis.
In this work we present the development of an information system designed to store, manage, analyze and visualize historical AIS data based on open-source components. We analyse such data to assess and map multiple anthropogenic pressures. For example, segmented regression on speed distribution is carried out to identify and map fishing activity, whereas neighbourhood statistics and GIS methods are used to generate underwater noise maps. We will illustrate these products within the context of risk assessment on marine ecosystems at the Western Mediterranean Sea.
The information provided in this study can be incorporated into Decision Support Systems (DSS) for supporting the implementation of European and national policies for the assessment of environmental impacts and the interactions among human activities as well.

Greetings all,
What does your imagination tell you when you think about the Austral Ocean ? Perhaps this place reminds you of the “Roaring
Forties” and the “Screaming fifties”, the drift of the icebergs, the only passage free of ice to go around the earth, an inhospitable
area, the Antarctic continent, penguins… Actually, the Austral Ocean is a keystone for the interocean exchanges of heat,
freshwater and anthropogenic tracers: it is the meeting point of the Indian, Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. It also plays a key role in
the global carbon cycle.
This issue is dedicated to this particular place. It will present to us some of the important oceanographic projects concerning the
Austral Ocean: Flostral, Survostral, GoodHope, the Drake Campaign and analysis done to better understand its dynamic and its
role from model (Drakkar project, …) and observations (ARGO, dedicated campaigns, satellite data sets, …).
The first article, written by Pouget & al., focuses on the performances of one of the global Mercator 1/4° model (PSY3v1) at
Drake Passage by comparing it with in situ data gathered from R.V Polarsten in 2006.
The second one, from Le Sommer & al., presents an overview of some results obtained on the Southern Ocean processes and
climate variability through the use of the Drakkar hierarchy of ocean/ice models.
The next one explains what the Survostral and Flostral projects are and it gathers some results deduced from the data collected
during these campaigns. Authors of this article are Salle JB and Morrow R.
The last one, written by Speich S. and Arhan M., presents the GoodHope project and summarizes some results of the work
done from the hydrographic data sets obtained in the scope of this project.
In this issue, we would also like to approach a central topic on the future of operational oceanography: MyOcean: part of the
GMES European Projet. This subject is introduced in the News pages by Pierre Bahurel.
I hope you enjoy this issue.

The 20th anniversary of the founding of Mercator
Océan (1995-2015) gives us an opportunity to
contemplate our past achievements but also to
look forward to the future. This issue has a special
meaning for all of us at Mercator Océan as it
pays tribute to men and women of the operational
oceanography community. We have thus portrayed
ten people you might not yet know, all of whom are
key actors (among many others) of today’s operational
oceanography and who are each worthy
of our attention.
We thus have an opportunity to thank all the scientists
who have published their work in the Mercator
Océan Newsletter and the Editorial Board*. We have
selected 24 papers to share with you again, sorted
into 10 themes. Through this issue, we intend to
highlight the work done over the last 20 years,
but above all to thank the people who did it, for
they are the actors who continually strive to build
today’s operational oceanography.
As you can imagine, selecting only 24 papers among
the last 53 issues was a tough choice for us!
This 20th anniversary also gives us an opportunity
to look ahead. The first Mercator Océan Newsletter
was published in April 2001. Fourteen years and
fifty-three issues later, it has become a reference
for a wide scientific community: each issue is read
by between 200 and approximately 5000 people
per year depending on the theme. To modernize
and streamline its circulation we have thus decided
to introduce the following changes.
Each issue will evolve with a more spacious and
easier to read page layout. The “Mercator Océan
Newsletter” is also changing its name and will
henceforth be called the “Mercator Ocean Journal”,
thus reflecting with a more appropriate term the
fact that it collates scientific papers. The editorial
line will not be changed, with 3 to 4 issues per year
publishing papers with a common theme as well
as an annual joint issue with the Coriolis Center
dedicated to in situ Observation. The first issue of
the “Mercator Ocean Journal” will focus on MyOcean2
and MyOcean Follow-on scientific output
and will be published in January 2016.
We sincerely hope you will enjoy this issue as much
as we have, for its content and the evocation of
all the work done over the past 20 years, but also
because it honors the dynamic and enthusiastic
scientists who each day add their contribution to
operational oceanography.

Getting a comprehensive overview of activities at sea is a challenge for most countries. To implement maritime policies effectively, governments and authorities need detailed, reliable knowledge about what happens at sea, in real time. At EMSA, we have the ability to tailor maritime information according to unique operational requirements. Precise services can be provided responding directly to the specific needs of diverse maritime users across Europe.
EMSA’s Integrated Maritime Services are offered through an advanced maritime data processing platform, combining information from all of the agency’s maritime applications as well as other external sources. Within this context, standardisation and interoperability, in addition to EMSA’s expertise in the processing and use of remote sensing Earth Observation products, are key elements to the successful provision of these services.
In this talk I am going to describe how EMSA's Integrated Maritime Services are developed at technical level, and thereafter provided at operational level to a variety of different users in different domains. I will specifically illustrate and discuss EMSA's services dedicated to: i) oil spill monitoring; ii) fisheries monitoring, and; iii) Search and Rescue.
Finally the requirements in terms of met-ocean data (in-situ, satellite remote sensing, and modelling forecast data) as set by our operational users will be examined, and the solutions implemented in order to integrate them into our services conveyed.

Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
