MELMARINA Project

December 31, 2002

NARSS has been selected by the EC as a partner with other North African countries for building up a system for Monitoring and Modelling coastal lagoons for management of aquatic resources using satellite data. This project concerns the development of lagoonal ecosystem monitoring (by field survey, long-term monitoring through field instrumentation and remote sensing) and its integration within hydraulic/ecological modelling. It has several aims and objectives designed to help tackle current deficiencies in northern delta lagoons management.
