Acronym

Name
coastDat - Regional Water and Matter Fluxes at the Land-Ocean Interface
Description
In order to better understand the global coastal systems and the dangers and risks associated with them, it is important to examine the atmosphere, the land, hydrology, the ocean and especially their interactions and feedbacks. In this project, we provide data on water and matter transport at the land surface. Currently, contributions were made by Umweltforschungszentrum Leipzig (UFZ) and the “Regional Land and Atmosphere Modeling” department of the Institute of Coastal Systems - Analysis and Modeling at Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon as well as from NIOZ and IOW. Our aim is to quantify the associated cycles of water and matter and their changes, mainly for the transition from land to the ocean. Our work contributes to GCOAST (Geesthacht Coupled cOAstal model SysTem) --> https://www.hereon.de/institutes/coastal_systems_analysis_modeling/research/gcoast/index.php.en
