CYCOFOS Bulletin
This is the electronic report of the CYCOFOS state of progress in oceanographic predictions and observations.
The CYCOFOS forecasting products are updated daily. These include the sea currents, sea temperature and salinity, sea level, the offshore significant wave height and direction.
The CYCOFOS observing products are updated hourly. These include the in-situ water temperature and salinity and sea level. The remote sensing SST-sea surface temperature and chlorophyll-a are updated daily.
