A regional experience: ADRICOSM
• The Italian Ministry of Environment and Territory started
an ADRICOSM Pilot Project in October 2001 to develop
the monitoring and modelling of the Adriatic currents and
ecosystem in order to detect changes and mitigate
impacts
• Other Projects will start in 2004 that will continue the
ADRICOSM developments
• The last ended of these projects is ADRICOSM-STAR:
ADRICOSM INTEGRATED RIVER BASIN AND COASTAL ZONE
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM: MONTENEGRO COASTAL AREA
AND BOJANA RIVER CATCHMENT
• The last on-going project is Adricosm-Intermediate

Production of generic high quality data
for environmental managers and policy makers
Enhancement and continuation of
the monitoring system
Daily Ocean Color derived parameters have been produced for the study area
since 1998 based on SeaWiFS data (CNR-ISAC):
• Total Suspended Matter (TSM)
• Colored Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM)
• Attenuation coefficient (K_490)
• Chlorophyll (Chl_a)

CONCLUSIONS
• Within the last 20 years Operational Oceanography has developed
a thick network of modelling and observing data and products
• At a regional scale (Mediterranean) the “base” products are freely
available through MyOcean
• At sub-regional (Adriatic) an effort was done to start to create a
semi-centralized GeoPortal to access the data
• All these products proved and keep proving everyday to be
fundamental instruments for end users such as European and local
Agencies ad Services, Member states, policy and decision makers
