Use-cases for Chemistry data EMODnet Chemistry validated buffer with contaminants and nutrients in the Black sea for the BSCS SoE (February 2017) EMODnet Chemistry contaminants + nutrients data requested for EEA thematic report Meeting with Info-RAC for synergy between information systems (June 2017) Dialogue with UNEP/MAP – case study on EO5 (nutrients and chlorophyll) in the North Adriatic (end June 2017) Collaboration with CMEMS INSTAC to be formalized by MoU 2/16/2019

DG MARE and DG GROW (Copernicus) CMEMS is the Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service led by Mercator-Océan INSTAC –In Situ Thematic Assembling centre- is the CMEMS component in charge of the in-situ data delivery for other components (MFCs Marine Forecasting centres) of CMEMS CMEMS INSTAC needs to start preparing at regular intervals global biochemical data collections (oxygen, chlorophyll and nutrients) MoU is under preparation to define the joint development and deployment of delayed mode services to access datasets from both EMODNet Chemistry and CMEMS INSTAC 2/16/2019

DG MARE and DG ENV (EEA) EEA decided to explore the use of EMODnet Chemistry data for some of their marine indicators, namely: Chlorophyll in coastal and marine waters Nutrients in coastal and marine waters Hazardous substances in marine organisms The analysis will be led by ICES, as ETC partners (with Niva and Deltares) Good opportunity for the project but requests alignment in the scheduling 2/16/2019

Memorandum of Understanding With BSCS and UNEP/MAP With EEA With INFO-RAC OSPAR and MCS for beach litter data exchange ICES for sea floor litter data exchange With Copernicus (CMEMS INSTAC) 2/16/2019

Impact of EMODnet Chemistry All RSCs used EMODnet Chemistry regional datasets for their assessment EEA explore the use of EMODnet Chemistry data for their marine indicators Copernicus Marine Services seek input from EMODnet Chemistry Wider use of EMODnet Chemistry data and products is good example to show impact Possible extension of activities (MSFD timelines, CMEMS coverage) Joint effort made possible by contribution of all  Thank you all ! 2/16/2019
