Introduction :
IRD is a French public science and technology research institute.
It conducts scientific programs contributing to the sustainable developmentof the countries of the South, with an emphasis on the relationshipbetween man and the environment.
with research aims
- Climatic impacts and Natural hazards; - Biodiversity and dynamic of marine ecosytem ressources; - Environnmental impacts for sustainable developpement;
IRD research is conducted in liaison with French universities and researchinstitutions , and for oceanographical aspects in mainland France (Paris, Toulouse, Brest, Marseille, Sète ..), in the French overseas territories (New Caledonia, Réunion, Guyana..) and with partners in the South mainly in theintertropical zone (West Africa, Guinea Gulf , Upwelling areas, ) .
who define some « end-users » profiles (academic / applied research) ( no research in remote sensing production, only use)
- physics / bio-geochemistryPhysical oceanography (dynamic) – Climat (OA interface)
Coupling dynamic / carbon cycle (phytoplancton, nutriment,..)( universities and research institutions )
- biologists : ecosystem approach – fisheries - AMPIRDs unit (CRHMT Sète) coastal / oceanic areas
users practice : Observation analysis (in situ, satellite, ..)Modelling ( forcing, validation)Campaign support
involved in projects : AMMA/EGEE, EUROCEAN EBUS,.. andmany overseas areas and collaborations :
ex : Marocco, Senegal, Peru, South Africa, Pacific,..

The high temporal and spatial resolution of satellite data , and its continuity, make satellite data an important tool for monitoring and characterizing climat, marine ecosystem, coastal management,..
Since 2006, it exist an internal IRD project to animate an exchangenetwork for developement of oceanographical satellite data consultationand visualisation tool ( also modelling results and in-situ measurements)
This is a attempt to promote remote sensed ocean retrievals intooperationnals products for end-users communities , where the potentialof these information has not been fully reached
- necessary « link » between several providers and final « end users » in science community ( of IRD ) for « integrated » approach :
- consultation and visualisation by WEB;
- uniform acces from « standardized » data extraction;
- «add value » product (indices);
- analysis tools and developpement;
A constat : satellite data are underutilized ..
- It exist constraints and limitations ( due to retrieval in remote sensing techniques)
for « basic » (operationnals) satellite parameters :
SST(s) , « SSR » (color, mainly CHL) , wind , SSH
and (experimentals) derived products : ex : Primary Production, fluxes,..
- Data can be difficult to access, manipulate and process
( informations, training, technical approach, ..)
- Existing (too) many access sites (WEB) for archiving, visualisation, (processing?).
but many dedicated to only one « thematic » ( by instrument, parameter, area..)
- All data from providers not really usefull for (final) users ( institutionnal, format,..)
- Few of them are really « integrated » ( ex : coaswatch (US), NAUSICAA (EU),..)
and none for developing countries ( ex : South Africa / AMIS )
Expected results
-Exhaustive review of satellite sources informations , with an « expertise » on available .. and usefull products ( adequacy, resolution, quality, acces, processing,..) for « end-users » research community ;
-Easier acces to data available from several providers, for pre-defined areas for various remote-sensed bio-geo physics parameters , space-time resolution , delay (DT/NRT);
-WEB application for data browsing and simultaneaous viewing of « Quick-Look » ( and downloading binary data .. for their own processing);
- acces to elaborated « indices » allowing synthetic representation of space-timeenvironnemental data;
-Development of collaborations with scientifics teams, use for developingcountries and promote of capacity building in remote-sensing.

Athie, G., and F. Marin (2008), Cross-equatorial structure and temporal modulation of intraseasonal variability at the surface of the Tropical Atlantic Ocean, J. Geophys. Res., 113, C08020, doi:10.1029/2007JC004332.
Abstract[1] Intraseasonal variability (10–50 days) in the equatorial Atlantic Ocean is analyzed from multiyear (1999–2005) satellite gridded products of sea-level anomalies (SLA) and sea-surface temperature (SST). Two regions with distinct intraseasonal variability have been identified. The first one, westof 10°W, is dominated by westward-propagating anomalies, with maximum values in SLA along 5°N and in SST along 2°N: They occur in borealsummer with periods of 25–50 days and are known to correspond to tropical instability waves (TIWs). We show that TIWs have also a signature, though weaker, south of the equator, especially along 5°S, in SLA. Northern and southern anomalies propagate together westward, being mostly out of phase, suggesting that equatorial wave dynamics is involved in TIWs variability. An SST signature of TIWs is also observed near 2°S, in quadrature with SST anomalies detected in the Northern Hemisphere. The interannual modulations of the TIW signature in SLA and SST are compared anddiscussed. The second dominant intraseasonal signal is only seen east of 10°W in SST and corresponds to an equatorially trapped variability, confined to the Gulf of Guinea with periods between 10 and 20 days. This signal is present in boreal summer when an intense SST front is observedjust north of the equator. Intraseasonal variability with comparable periods is also observed in the meridional wind stress throughout the year. Comparison of SST and meridional wind stress anomalies suggests that the 10- to 20-day variability in SST is forced by the wind stress but seasonally modulated by the presence of the SST front.
