  • Ocean thermal fronts are produced daily "detected" with the SIED algorithm - Single Image Edge Detection (Cayula and Cornillon, 1992) applied to satellite images of the sea surface temperature (SST), made available by the CMEMS (Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service) and DEIMOS, is run by Meteo France CMS over EUROPE.

  • Ocean thermal fronts are produced daily "detected" with the SIED algorithm - Single Image Edge Detection (Cayula and Cornillon, 1992) applied of the sea surface temperature in the HYCOM model (HYbrid Coordinate Ocean Model) available at DEIMOS and provided / supplies by IH.

  • The CONVERT project aimed at identifying, in an objective and quantitative way, the different types of endogenous biomass that can be applied in the short-medium term to economically viable technological solutions for the production of power and heat, energy vectors, and especially advanced biofuels. These should comply with all the sustainability criteria set by the European Directives, in particular the Red II (2015/1513) Directive. This project included the following activities: Activity 1 - Energy potential of the organic fraction of solid urban waste; Activity 2 - Energy potential of biowaste produced under industrial context; Activity 3 - Potential of mainland Portugal for energy crops; Activity 4 - Conversion technologies and respective energy products; Activity 5 - Life Cycle Analysis and estimation of Sustainable Value and Activity 6 - Communication plan. As part of Activity 3, LNEG developed a spatial data infrastructure to facilitate the exchange and use of information between all the beneficiary agents in a first phase, with visualization and consultation via the web. These data are crucial for choosing locations for energy crops/microalgae and for selecting the species to cultivate, while also identifying critical or limiting locations for their utilisation.
