Ocean Science Data

Giuseppe Manzella received a degree in Physics from the Department of Physics, University of Rome "La Sapienza". After some fellowships, and attendance of specialization courses in Europe, he first worked at National Research Council (1982-1992) and then was employed as research manager in ENEA (1992-2013). From 1978 he has been active in national, European, and international programs in oceanography. He has worked as expert on Marine Ecosystem for the Italian Ministry of Research, and the Italian representative to WMO-IOC Joint Committee for Marine Meteorology (JCOMM). He has chaired the Italian Oceanographic Commission from January 2009 to June 2014. He is chairing the Historical Oceanography Society. He is author/co-author of 50 refereed papers published in international journals, co-editors of two books published, and the Topic Editor of the Journal Earth System Science Data. Antonio Novellino received a PhD in Biotechnology and Bioengineering and a MSc in Biomedical Engineering. From 2008 to 2010, he served on the European Commission, JRC – IHCP, as a senior researcher. He is the ETT Research Manager where he coordinates R&D activities (www.ettsolutions.com). He served on the Board of Directors of Consortium Si4Life (www.si4life.com) and on the board of Consortium Tecnomar (SMEs working on maritime and environment technology, www.consorziotecnomar.com). He is serving on the techno-scientific board of the Ligurian Cluster of Marine Technology DLTM (www.dltm.it); the board of Consortium TRAIN (innovation in energy and transport management, www.consorziotrain.org); EMODnet Steering Committee and Technical Working Group; Expert Team on WIS Centres (ET-WISC); and Southern Ocean Observing System Data Management team (SOOS DMSC). He is a member of the EuroGOOS DATAMEQ group for advising on operational oceanography data management procedures. He is the EMODnet Physics coordinator (www.emodnet-physics.eu) and CMEMS Dissemination Unit (CMEMS DU) deputy coordinator.
