Marsýn

Marsýn ehf provides accurate and up-to-date information on oceanic condition for the fishing industry.

Todays fishing industry is more than ever dependent on information about the ocean-atmosphere system. Whereby, the access and interpretation of atmospheric (e.g. wind speed and direction, visibility, sea level pressure or air temperature) and oceanic (e.g. wave heights, sea level height, currents, temperature, salinity, nutrient concentration or plankton densities) data forms the base of successful strategies implemented while fishing and sailing across the Atlantic. Marsýn ehf proposes to meet this demand for accurate and up-to-date information on ocean condition. Based on extensive research we have constructed a marine information system for the mid north Atlantic waters which provides forecasts on ocean conditions in high resolution. Future versions will use an even higher spatial resolution and include information about target fish aggregations.
