Abstract. The one-point and two-point power spectral densities of the wind velocity fluctuations are studied using observations from an offshore mast at Vindeby Offshore Wind Farm, for a wide range thermal stratifications atmosphere. A comparison with estimates FINO1 platform (North Sea) is made to identify shared characteristics turbulence between different sites. sonic anemometer measurement ...

Since 2001, trained snorkelers, freedivers, and scuba diver volunteers (collectively called EcoDivers) have been recording data on the distribution, abundance, bathymetric range of 43 selected key marine species along Mediterranean Sea coasts using Reef Check Underwater Coastal Environment Monitoring (RCMed U-CEM) protocol. The taxa, including algae, invertebrates, fishes, were by a combination...

After a century of absence, in late January 1991, Vibrio cholerae invaded the Western Hemisphere by way of Peru. Although a number of theories have been proposed, it is still not understood how that invasion took place.

In the westernmost region of the rapidly widening Corinth rift, Greece, extensive development of roads, bridges and other human infrastructure has caused continuous environmental change over the past twenty years. River networks, the land surface and the coastal environment, have been altered, especially in the areas corresponding to deltaic fans. In this paper we use earth observation systems ...

This paper describes an open source suite of libraries and tools to support research activities on marine and coastal environment. The suite was initially implemented for the ADRIPLAN portal, an integrated web platform aimed at supporting Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) activities and other activities concerning the managing of marine environment for the Adriatic-Ionian region. The main element...
