Ocean - CMCC

Latest News

The sea acidification and slowing down of oceanic circulation are among the long term trends that will be reversed only in the most optimistic future in terms of emissions reduction, the new generation Earth System Model developed by the CMCC confirms. Our most recent contribution to the global endeavour of making more and more accurate predictions of the future climate stands for CMCC-ESM2 and is the result of an effort that involved CMCC across the board.

New insights from increasingly cutting-edge models: only drastic cuts in atmospheric CO2 can reverse trends

The real-time sea level forecasts of the modelling system named S-WITCH, provided by CMCC. The operational system forecasted the maximum sea level on 30th September at 15:00 UTC time along the Georgia coasts.

Hurricane Ian: forecasting of the coastal storm surge

The guide, produced thanks to the cooperation of 51 institutions from 18 countries worldwide, among wich the CMCC Foundation, promotes the development of new marine forecasting systems around the globe, along with the improvement of the existing ones.

Implementing Operational Ocean Monitoring and Forecasting Systems: guide released

A new platform which will make access and use of earth observation (EO) data easier for environmental, government, and even business forecasts and operations has been announced by Horizon Europe’s EU-funded innovation consortium EO4EU during their launch on 29-30 June 2022, in Athens, Greece.
