Editorial: Coastal Extension of CMEMS Products. Models, Data and Applications

Abstract

Recent advances in metocean operational products, with models at different scales and observations that combine in-situ and satellite data, have enabled in recent years a significant improvement in the range of coastal applications and analyses. Coastal processes and products, however, have been shown to present larger errors than the corresponding open ocean results, requiring a deeper and detailed knowledge of hydro-morpho-bio-chemical interactions to support robust predictions for shallow water domains. Coastal applications, thus, demand an increasing resolution together with an improved accuracy and lead forecast times to comply with stakeholder requirements.
