SDG | Contribution from this Programme |
1 | Sustainable blue economy using a science-based approach that considers coastal predictions for management of resources and environmental protection. |
2 | Fishery and mariculture rely on the accuracy of the “predicted” ocean |
3 | Coastal oceans are essential components of human’s well-being and coastal ocean predictions help to preserve this natural resource. |
4 | Coastal ocean literacy is a pre-requisite for responsible citizenship at public, private and corporate levels. |
5 | Coastal ocean solutions will consider diversity issues at all levels of the programme development. |
6 | Predict salinization of drinkable waters, understand and predict salt intrusions in rivers, develop integrated water management plans in the coastal areas. |
7 | Improve the use of renewable energy from the coastal zone winds, currents (including slope currents) and waves using the predicted ocean products |
8 | Promote safe working conditions for the coastal ocean communities using ocean prediction products |
9 | Innovative coastal tourism, mariculture, transport, gas/oil extraction, safe transport and advanced port management using coastal prediction products |
10 | Promote the inclusive participation of the coastal communities in the design and implementation of solutions, irrespective of age, sex, disability, race, ethnicity, origin, religion or economic or other status |
11 | Reliable and extended coastal inundation predictions, hazard mapping of coastal pollution from different sources eliminating dumping in the coastal zone |
12 | Connect the “predicted coastal ocean” to scientific and technological capacity to move toward more sustainable seafood production and consumption in the global coastal ocean. |
13 | Promote downscaling of climate change scenarios in the coastal zone, designing new coupled ocean-atmosphere-land-hydrology at the local scales and define impacts of different scenarios, including coastal sea level changes and extreme events at the coasts |
14 | Protect and restore coastal habitats, develop nature-based solutions for coastal erosion using coastal prediction products. Develop early warning systems for multi-hazards on the coasts. |
15 | Improve the understanding of aquifer water flows and the management of the adverse effects of coastal area saltwater intrusions. |
16 | Analyze and implement plans for coastal transboundary water problems, enhancing the collaboration of countries in setting the observing and modelling system that will enable water resources and their part of the global coastal ocean to be peacefully managed. |
17 | Mobilize resources for the co-design between scientists and coastal stakeholders on the science, solutions/services and capacity in the global coastal ocean |
