North West Shelf Operational Oceanographic System

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Oceanography facility

TheNorth West Shelf Operational Oceanographic System (NOOS) monitors physical, sedimentological and ecological variables for theNorth Sea area.^[1] NOOS is operated by partners from the nine countries bordering the extended North Sea andEuropean North West Shelf;Belgium,Denmark,France,Germany,Ireland,Netherlands,Norway,Sweden, andUnited Kingdom. Working collaboratively to develop and implement ocean observing systems in the area.^[1] Near real time and recent history sea levels are available to on theirweb site inmap,graph ortable format.^[1]
