Abstract : JERICO (The European Coastal Ocean Observing System) is a pan-European research infrastructure committed to observing, analyzing, understanding, and forecasting changes in coastal marine systems. It encompasses a wide range of scientific disciplines, including physical oceanography, biogeochemistry, marine biology, and hydrology. Its objective is to provide integrated solutions to address key scientific challenges related to climate change, anthropogenic pressures, extreme events, biodiversity loss and the sustainable management of coastal resources.

JERICO’s scientific vision is to create a coherent observation framework to enhance the understanding of coastal ecosystems by combining multidisciplinary data and innovative approaches. Its mission is based on delivering high-quality observations, FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data, and access to advanced services and technologies, while strengthening international scientific collaboration.

JERICO pushes the boundaries of science by integrating new interdisciplinary dimensions with a multiplatforms approach. This includes fixed and moving platforms with the development of real-time physical, biological and chemical observations (e.g., smart sensors, marine robots), the transition to systems fully compatible with artificial intelligence, and the design of environmentally friendly infrastructures. These advancements enable better monitoring of essential oceanic variables and support the sustainable management of coastal ecosystems within the framework of the European Green Deal.

The multidisciplinary impact of JERICO is significant. It builds bridges between marine, terrestrial, and atmospheric disciplines, addressing critical gaps in the European scientific landscape. It bridges coastal and open-ocean data, fostering synergies with existing RIs. To enhance coordination, JERICO established links with several RIs, including DANUBIUS, ICOS, EMBRC, and EMSO. These partnerships strengthen synergies, improve data interoperability, and support joint initiatives addressing coastal and environmental observation challenges.
