There are a number of activities at sea and along the coasts in which the use of marine data is essential Search & Rescue Pollution emergency Coastal protection & erosion Protection & management of marine ecosystems Harbours Renewable energy Law enforcement & civil protection Fishery & aquaculture Safety of navigation Offshore activities Tourism Climate Change 2

Examples of direct use of CMEMS data 2. Examples of applications which make use of CMEMS data to provide additional/higher resolved data and many others can be found here, in the Markets and Benefits menu of CMEMS website 3

The Baltic Sea forecasts of the Copernicus Service were used to obtain salinity measurements in the relevant waters. Given that salinity is a precious indicator, the use of Baltic MFC products can be very useful to local authorities and fishermen about potential threats on pikes. 10
