Geneva, Switzerland (WMO) – The Earth’s climate is more out of balance than at any time in observed history, as greenhouse gas concentrations drive continued warming of the atmosphere and ocean and melting of ice, according to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). These rapid and large-scale changes have occurred within a few decades but will have harmful repercussions for hundreds – and potentially thousands – of years.

Mariners and ocean data users can now access and use the operational version of the Phase 1 S-100 product specifications in real-world environments. The S-100 framework will facilitate safer arrivals and manoeuvres, a more efficient traffic flow, a more sustainable maritime travel, and seamless port operations.
By enabling data interoperability within a single integrated system, S-100 connects the data layers relied on by stakeholders across a wide range of applications, from port logistics to real-time navigation, as well as for environmental monitoring purposes.
In contrast with the currently used S-57 standard, systems using S-100 data will be able to be updated in near-real time, giving mariners the most up-to-date information possible about the situation, elements and conditions surrounding a

Many affected communities depend on fishing and tourism and worry the spill could damage their livelihoods ahead of the Easter holidays, when beaches typically attract visitors.
