7 Ocean fronts for dynamic oceanography Assist site selection for offshore engineering, minimising impact on marine animals. Provide additional information on surface physical oceanography, from 30 year satellite time-series. May reveal if there is more eddy activity at particular locations or times of year, or predictable seasonal changes in the width of a dynamic current. Integrate with current meters / ADCP, which give velocities at depth but limited regions and time span. Visualise spatial and temporal context of strong current events, and monitor in near-real time. Validation of physical models in terms of frontal locations.

20 Conclusions on fronts for integration Synoptic front chart highlights important features in ocean temperature and colour data, as discrete entities. Front contours derived from EO thermal and colour data can be combined in GoogleEarth to explore biophysical interactions. Ocean colour may reveal additional physical processes even if there is no thermal signal. Combined visualisations of ocean fronts, SSS and SSH will assist in interpretation and fusion of these datasets. Future work Statistical comparison of thermal/colour fronts, SSS, SSH.
