Résumé
This note presents some work related to analysis of FAD trajectories (observed and simulated) by using additional observations of Drifters and related simulations with a model (Ichthyop) driven by satellite products for sea surface currents (OSCAR). We have different goals in mind: comparisons of FADs and surface drifters trajectories (by comparing in situ observations and remote sensing data), predicting the areas where FAD could drift, prevent damages on coral reefs, check if some species are following FADs. However to deal with these use cases, the execution of thousands of simulations is a prerequisite. We propose to execute the runs of the model online with following benefits: all users can run the model remotely without having to configure anything and with additional machine resources, outputs of the model can be stored and shared online and are thus already available for the next steps (post processing). We present and discuss some of the possible use cases and preliminary results.
