Copepod - Diatom relations research by the University of Washington's School of Oceanography.

Coriolis is a French project for operational oceanography contributing to the in-situ part of the system, with the objective of developing continuous, automatic and permanent observation networks. The data collected will enable water properties such as temperature, and ocean circulation to be mapped.

Prediction of Cohesive Sediment transport and bed morphodynamics in estuaries and coastal zones with Integrated Numerical Simulation models.

COHERENS is a European funded project for the scientific and technical validation and the dissemination and exploitation of a three-dimensional integrated model for coastal and shelf seas developed over the period 1990-1996 within two previous MAST projects.

The goal of COAPEC is to determine the impact on climate, especially European climate, of the coupling between the Atlantic Ocean and the atmosphere, including the influence of ENSO on this coupling.

Research on deep water marine sediments that applies deep tow high resolution seismic and sediment core analysis. Gulf of Mexico bathymetry maps and marine geology links are available.

EnviWave's main objective is to validate altimenter and ASAR wind and wave sensors against buoys, wave models and other satellites.

Ocean Data Assimilation at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, MIT.

A consortium formed by a group of scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) with the technical goal of the sustained production and evaluation of continuing three-dimensional estimates of the global state of the ocean in near-real time in support programs such as GODAE and CLIVAR.

Involves eight research institutes and universities in Europe offering employment to pre-doc and post-doc researchers interested in working on "Assessment of continental slope stability" and "Deep carbonate mounds and reefs".
