Multiinstitutional Project FURG, UFSC, UFPR, CEBIMAR-USP, UFRJ, UFES UFRJ subproject Study of the alterations of the processes of coastal flooding in brazilian southeast region Downscalling Global South Atlantic Brazilian Coast Guanabara bay Downscalling from km to 27 meters Coastal environment inside Guanabara bay (RJ) 5/17/18 6

8 Proposed Projects Brazil February 2018 Session 1: Development and Integration of Space and Oceanic Technologies. Projects based on: long period strategies Existent structured projects Project 1 - Improvement of large-scale circulation models in the South Atlantic Project 2 - Modeling the dispersion of microplastics and oil in the sea Project 3 Development of regular ocean observation lines for the South Atlantic Project 4 - Changes in ocean dynamics in the South Atlantic based on climate change scenarios. Project 5 - Implementation of autonomous sensors in voluntary observing ships (VOS) 5/17/18 7

9 Proposed Projects Cabo Verde May 2018 Workshop: Clean, healthy and sustainable oceans Observing, modelling and monitoring oceans and coasts Modeling the dispersion of microplastics in the sea Chosen Project Central theme evolving different research areas such as: Workshop: Data Sciences Applications and Services Matching Data producers and user needs HPC usage for Ocean renewable Energy Needs
