The Italian Data
Buoy Network.
(RON - Rete Ondametrica Nazionale)
In April 2010 Envirtech deployed the 15th, and
last, buoy of the Italian Data Buoy Network, formerly
known as "Rete Ondametrica Nazionale" (PDF Paper).
Please see
video clips about the buoys deployments.
The new Data Buoy Network, owned by
ISPRA, the Institute for Environmental Protection and
Research consists of 15 oceanographic buoys deployed along
italian shores.
Italian buoys collect directional sea motion
data, sea surface temperature, wind speed and direction, air
pressure and humidity.
Gathered data will be available on WMO GTS, via
WEB and on the Italian teletext service (RAI-1) .
LAST DATA COLLECTED
(open your tcp port 5555):
To query GTS for charts and data quality
comparison respect the ECMWF
models please refer to the
SURFACE MARINE DATA AND QC PLOTS web site maintained by
Pierre Blouch from Meteo France.

for Network Status, Google KML links etc.
At present our on line Database
contains
millions records starting January 1999.To

The Italian Data Buoy Network consists of 15 oceanographic buoys, deployed
along Italian coasts, on a seabed 100 meters deep. It collects directional sea wave
data, meteorological data, sea surface temperature and in some cases quality
parameters. Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCP) and hyperspectral
probes will be added in the future. |

Considerable
advances have been made recently to reduce the cost of gathering
meteorological and oceanographic data from coastal waters,
especially for meteorological and oceanographic parameters such
as wind speed and wave height. |

A
modern directional wave measurement network is operating since
1989 around the Italian coasts. The
remote-controlled buoy system is managed by
the National Hydrological and Marine Survey with excellent
results in terms of data
acquisition rates, temporal coverage and reliability. |

The Wind and Wave atlas for the
Mediterranean Sea
Luigi Cavaleri, Mauro Sclavo |
Long-term
climatological data over the sea are much in demand for a number
of reasons, ranging from pure scientific knowledge to the
important applications of, e.g., safety at sea and the design of
sea structures. The launch of ERS-1, and soon after of
TOPEX/Poseidon, offered an unprecedented continuous flow of wind
speed and wave height measurements.

Wave Data Along Ship Routes in the
Mediterranean Sea
G.A. Athanassoulis,

The
calculation of reliable wave statistics for the probabilistic
assessment of ship stability
requires various data sets to be assembled, including temporal
long term representative directional
wave and wind data, for a set of geographical points distributed
along the route. In the present paper
we give a description of the above data available in the
Mediterranean Sea, and their exploitation
for the long-term probabilistic assessment of ship stability. We
also discuss the problems and
consequent limitations associated to each source of data.
