StatClimat vs Operational Oceanography

Basic information about climate change and the actions taken or planned to limit it: Whether you are a member of the public or a specialist, the “StatClimat” application gives you the latest available statistical information from France and abroad (European Union or the rest of the world, depending on the availability of data). Access information arranged into three subject areas: impacts: observed physical changes and trends, causes: greenhouse gas emissions caused by human activities, vision: policy objectives and the distance covered in mitigation of the effects of climate change.

CFOO is a regional, multi-institutional, Centre of Excellence in observational and operational oceanography, associated applied research and species management programs. Based in South Africa, CFOO was established with the intent on developing in-situ monitoring, observational and operational oceanography in conjunction with marine species management, particularly Endangered species. In achieving this, CFOO will incorporate training, education, human capacity development, scientific research, R & D, engineering and renewable energy applications. Accessibility using modern techniques is key to the effective use of the resources available, particularly the live data. This will include ‘in-field’ data entry via mobile or tablet for tracking animals and assist environmental law enforcement.
