Abstract
- In the framework of the ADRICOSM project, the Satellite Oceanography Group (GOS) of Rome developed a Fast Delivery System (FDS) for providing the partner modeling centres with remotelysensed ocean colour and sea surface temperature (SST) data. Data are processed, mapped and binned on the Adriatic Sea area in order to be assimilated into both ecosystem models and circulation models for ocean forecasting. Further technological improvements permitted the building and optimization of a system suitable for meeting the increasing demand for near-real-time ocean colour and SST products for applications in operational oceanography. Real-Time Images of SeaWiFS chlorophyll concentration, clouds/case I/case II water flags and true colour images are obtained by processing the satellite passes using climatological ancillary data. These images are provided daily through an ad hoc automatic system that processes the raw satellite data and makes it available on the web within an hour of satellite overpass acquisition. All of the images are stored in a gallery web archive organized in a calendar chart. Accurate chlorophyll maps for assimilation are produced in near real time (typically after 4 days) as soon as daily meteorological ancillary data are made available on the NASA website. Each chlorophyll map is flagged for clouds or other contamination factors using the corresponding 24 quality flag maps. This implies that case-2 waters and spurious atmospheric effects have been removed from the pigment data set. This final product is binned on the Adriatic model grid and made available for the ADRICOSM project on the GOS web site. NOAA/AVHRR data are also acquired by the GOS ground station in Rome and managed by the FDS from their reception up to their distribution. Daily SST maps of the Adriatic Sea binned over the AREG model grid at 1/16° resolution are distributed weekly in Near-Real-Time along with the daily SST maps of the eastern Mediterranean Sea delivered at 1/8° resolution to the MFSTEP project. Real-Time SST maps of the Adriatic Sea at 1km resolution are posted daily in GIF format on the GOS website.<br />U okviru projekta ADRISOSM, GOS (Grupa za satelitsku oceanografiju) iz Rima razvila je Sustav za brzu isporuku FDS, snabdijevanje partnerskih centara za modeliranje satelitskim snimcima boje mora i tem-peraturnim podacima površine mora (SST). Podaci za Jadran su obrađeni, pretvoreni u grafičke produkte i digitalizirani kako bi se mogli asimilirati u model strujanja i model ekosistema, te koristiti oceanografskoj prognozi. Daljnja tehnološka poboljšanja su omogućila izgradnju i optimalizaciju sustava, zbog rastućih potreba za produktima boje mora i površinske temperature za različite primjene u operativnoj oceanografiji. Slike koncentracije klorofila od senzora SeaWiFS, slike oblaka te Case1 i Case2 oznake, kao i slike prave boje dobivaju se procesiranjem satelitskih scena uz popratne klimatološke podatke. Slike se procesiraju dnevno kroz ad-hoc automatski sustav koji obrađuje sirove satelitske podatke i omogućuje njihovu isporuku na mrežu, sat vremena nakon prikupljanja satelitskih podataka tj. nakon prolaska satelita. Sve se slike spremaju u arihvu na mreži koja je organizirana prema datumima. Korigirane slike koncentracije klorofila za asimilaciju u model proizvode se u skoro realnom vremenu (tipično 4 dana kasnije) čim se dobiju popratni meteorološki podaci s mreže NASA-e. Na svakoj slici klorofila su označeni oblaci ili drugi kontaminirajući faktori, prema 24 kategorije kvalitete slika. To znači da su Case 2 slučajevi piksela uklonjeni iz snimaka kao i atmosferske sme-tnje. Konačni produkt se usklađuje s koordinatnom mrežom Jadrana i stavlja na raspolaganje na stranicama ADRICOSM-a preko GOS-ove Internet stranice. GOS zemaljska stanica u Rimu prikuplja i podatke NOAA/ AVHRR koji se procesiraju kroz FDS sustav, od prijema do konačne distribucije podataka. Dnevne se slike površinske temperature mora (SST), usklađene preko koordinatne mreže AREG-a pri prostornom razlučivanju od 1/16 stupnja, distribuiraju tjedno u skoro realnom vremenu, zajedno sa slikama istočnog Sredozemlja koje imaju razlučivanje od 1/8 stupnja prema MFSTEP projektu. Dnevno, u skoro realnom vremenu, isporučuju se slike SST za Jadran uz prostorno razlučivanje od 1 km u GIF formatu na Internet stranici GOS-a.
