The bulk of environmental analysis in EMIS/AMIS relies on models data outputs and satellite-derived products, from optical and infrared satellite sensors

Satellite derived products Numerical models data Other marine variables from atlases and databases

EMIS / AMIS data description

Monthly devired products from SeaWIFS, MODIS-A, AVHRR Pathfinder (Surface chlorophyll, Diffuse attenuation coefficient, Depth integrated primary production, Sea surface, temperature, …)

Modeled Data from hydrodynamic simulations (European seas) -  Physical variables generated by 3D models (mixed layer depth, mixed layer temperature and salinity, …) -  Ecological, water quality indicators

Other variables and layers (Bathymetry (GEBCO Digital Atlas), catchment basins, rivers, …)
