NIB-MBS as MyOcean partner
Marine Biology Station of NIB participated in the project MyOcean with two work packages :
WP9 – Cal/Val - calibration and validation of numerical models for the Mediterranean, providing:
Daily averaged data of the oceanographic buoy Vida (temperature, salinity and velocity of sea currents) - operational since February 2010 (buoy is operational since 2002)Daily averaged results of the numerical model North Adriatic Princeton Ocean Model – NAPOM (temperature, salinity, velocity of sea currents and sea surface elevation at predefined stations) - operational since June 2011
WP18 – Marine Safety - prediction of the spread of oil spils in the Slovenian Sea through numerical models of NAPOM (NIB-MBS) and NAFTA (University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Civil and Geodetic Engineering)

NIB-MBS as MyOcean 2 partner
Marine Biology Station of NIB participates in the project MyOcean 2 in a large WP 3:
Sub-WP 3.5 ‘National Systems in the Mediterranean’- calibration and validation of numerical models for the Mediterranean:
Task 3.5.3: integration of MyOcean2 products in the National System, (feedback by User Assessment Reports (UAR)) of usefullness of MyOcean products)
Task 3.5.4: external validation system of MyOcean, based on in situ data (buoy Vida) and high-resolution models products (NAPOM, NAFTA 3D) provided by National Systems.

ConclusionsMyOcean 2 is one of a few projects that had been only slightly reducedMyOcean a successful project:
delivers about 215 oceanographic products available through a single catalogue it is open and free
We are worried about our possibility to work on MyOcean 2 in 2013 and later:
Funding of maintenance/repair of Vida after five years of continuous operation (65 k€), out of scope of MyOcean 2Heavy situation in a country lack of financing human potential - could affect the work on MyOcean 2

Up to date the MyOcean (2) project is the best scientific/technological European umbrella for
coastal ocean studies.
Therefore:we will fight and accomplish what we promissed
