| Abstract |
|
More than half of the world’s population is concentrated in the coastal areas or areas increasingly influenced by coastal disasters under changing climate. Real-time and continuous monitoring of environmental information is vital to predict, forecast, warn, prevent and mitigate coastal disasters. A surface mooring named ‘East Sea Real-time Ocean Buoy (ESROB)’, has been developed and operated to provide time-series information on key (physical and biogeochemical) oceanographic as well as meteorological variables in real-time, located 9 km off the east coast of Korea in 130 m water depth since 1999. The data obtained from the ESROB are transmitted to the server and displayed in the web page in real-time with time history. We provide an example case of the data collected during the typhoon Sanba in 2012. Such real-time and continuous data from the ESROB need to be integrated into the national system to mitigate and prevent coastal disasters and for risk management. |
