SOCIB Glider Missions - Canales Endurance Line - was initiated in 2011, with in kind collaboration of CSIC (IMEDEA), covering both the Mallorca and Ibiza channel in a semi-continuous operational mode and sampling physical and biogeochemical observations. The Ibiza channel is a well-established biodiversity hotspot and accordingly more intensive monitoring of the Ibiza channel is carried out to capture the mesoscale and submesoscale structures and their relation to the weekly to seasonal and annual/inter-annual variability. On the canales endurance line, ocean gliders making repeated dives from the surface to 1000 m interior of the ocean, repeating the cycle every ~5 hours, and traveling ~5 km in the horizontal during each dive. The canales endurance line is covering both the Mallorca and Ibiza channel in a semi-continuous operational mode. The glider missions typically last about 60 to 90 days, providing 6-10 sections of the Ibiza channel and 2 sections of the Mallorca channel. Since 2011 the Canales Endurance line has completed 108 glider missions, covered 53000 km over the ground, and has more than 97000 physical and biogeochemical profiles.

The project aims at assessing the importance of a new monitoring line across the Algerian Basin between Palma de Mallorca and the Algerian Coast. The Algerian Basin (AB) is located in the south of the Western Mediterranean Sea and is characterized by the presence of fairly fresh surface waters coming from the Atlantic (Atlantic Water- AW) and the more saline waters from the northwestern Mediterranean region interacting at different scales from basin-scale to mesoscale structures. The project aims at assessing the importance of a monitoring line across the AB between Palma de Mallorca and the Algerian coasts. ABACUS project will contribute to data collection in The Southern European Seas, one of the main EU maritime policy objectives, as outlined in the Marine Strategy Framework Directive through a multi-platform study of the mesoscale variability and main physical and biological characteristics of the AC system.

Beach Lifeguards (SocorristaIB) Seaboard (http://seaboard.socib.es/lifeguard) and SocorristaIB mobile app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.socib.lifeguards&hl=en) provide atmospheric and oceanographic variables interpolated from numerical prediction models (oceanographic and atmospheric) at the points closest to the Balearic 352 beaches where there lifeguard service mesh.
The Argo observing network is composed of profiling floats which collect information from the ocean surface to subsurface. These floats collect vertical profiles of ocean temperature and salinity, and some also measure biogeochemical ocean properties. These data provide information about the 4-dimensional ocean, helping to understand the oceans role in the Earth s climate system and to improve future climate change estimates. As part of the Euro-Argo ERIC (European Research Infrastructure Consortium), SOCIB has contributed to the program in the Western Mediterranean Sea since 2011. Each year, SOCIB deploys three floats to maintain a set of five floats, distributed across the sea with an average spacing of 2 degrees. This ensures continuous observation capability. This dataset compiles SOCIB s contribution to Euro-Argo ERIC since January 2011.
SOCIB-Canales is a seasonal cruise developed by SOCIB team that includes a mesh of 23 CTD stations in the Ibiza Channel and a radial (with 10 stations) crossing the Mallorca channel.

Two or mode HFR sites are needed for computing the map of total surface current vectors in the overlapping coverage area. Total velocities are derived using least square fit that maps radial velocities measured from individual sites onto a cartesian grid. The final product is a map of the horizontal components of the ocean currents on a regular grid in the area of overlap of two or more radar stations.

A coastal sea level reconstruction based on tide gauge observations is developed and applied to the western basin of the Mediterranean sea, including sea level anomaly (SLA) and interpolation error along the entire coastline. The reconstructions are carried out in four frequency bands: periods longer than 10 years, periods between 1 and 10 years, periods between 1 month and 1 year, and periods between 1day and 1month. Total sea level at monthly and daily resolution, obtained by merging the different frequency bands, is also provided. The reconstructions are based on an optimal interpolation method in which the correlation between tide gauge data and all coastal points has been determined from the outputs of the numerical model managed by the Balearic Islands Coastal Observing and Forecasting System (SOCIB, https://www.socib.es). The reconstructions for frequencies lower than 1 month use monthly observations from the Permanent Service for Mean Sea Level (PSMSL, https://www.psmsl.org/) database and cover the period from 1884 to 2019. For the reconstruction of higher frequencies, hourly observations from the Global Extreme Sea Level Analysis (GESLA–2, https://www.gesla.org/) dataset are used, and cover from 1980 to 2015.

Systematic and sustained high quality measurements of nearshore waves and beach morphology are crucial to unravel the effects of global warming on sandy coasts and thus be able to assess the validity of sediment transport numerical models. Such measurements are also key to understanding the morphodynamic processes that determine how the beach evolves. In 2011 a comprehensive beach monitoring program, the first in the Mediterranean Sea, started at Cala Millor Beach on the island of Mallorca (Spain). The aim was to provide long-term datasets of near-shore morphodynamics in a carbonate sandy micro-tidal and semi-embayed beach fronted by a Posidonia oceanica seagrass meadow. The dataset includes topobathymetries, shoreline positions obtained from video cameras, meteorological parameters from a weather station, currents, as well as waves and sea level from ADCP measurements and sediment size. This free and unrestricted archived dataset can be used to support the modelling of erosion-deposition patterns, calibrate beach evolution models, and as a result to propose adaptation and mitigation actions under different global change scenarios.

Training dataset
BWILD is a dataset tailored to train Artificial Intelligence applications to automate beach seagrass wrack detection in RGB images. It includes oblique RGB images captured by SIRENA beach video-monitoring systems, along with corresponding annotations, auxiliary data and a README file. BWILD encompasses data from two microtidal sandy beaches in the Balearic Islands, Spain. The dataset consists of images with varying fields of view (9 cameras), beach wrack abundance, degrees of occupation, and diverse meteoceanic and lighting conditions. The annotations categorise image pixels into five classes: i) Landwards, ii) Seawards, iii) Diffuse wrack, iv) Intermediate wrack, and v) Dense wrack.
Technical details
The BWILD version 1.1.0 is packaged in a compressed file (BWILD_v1.1.0.zip). A total of 3286 RGB images are shared in PNG format, corresponding annotations and masks in various formats (PNG, XML, JSON,TXT), and the README file in PDF format.
Data preprocessing
The BWILD dataset utilizes snapshot images from two SIRENA beach video-monitoring systems. To facilitate annotation while maintaining a diverse range of scenarios, the original 1280x960 pixel images were cropped to smaller regions, with a uniform resolution of 640x480 pixels. A subset of images was carefully curated to minimize annotation workload while ensuring representation of various time periods, distances to camera, and environmental conditions. Image selection involved filtering for quality, clustering for diversity, and prioritizing scenes containing beach seagrass wracks. Further details are available in the README file.
Data splitting
Data splitting requirements may vary depending on the chosen Artificial Intelligence approach (e.g., splitting by entire images or by image patches). Researchers should use a consistent method and document the approach and splits used in publications, enabling reproducible results and facilitating comparisons between studies.
Classes, labels and annotations
The BWILD dataset has been labelled manually using the 'Computer Vision Annotation Tool' (CVAT), categorising pixels into five labels of interest using polygon annotations.
Label
Description
landwards Pixels that are towards the landside with respect to the shoreline
seawards Pixels that are towards the seaside with respect to the shoreline
diffuse wrack Pixels that potentially resembled beach wracks based on colour and shape, yet the annotator could not confirm this with certainty, were denoted as ‘diffuse wrack’
Intermediate wrack Pixels with low-density beach wracks or mixed beach wracks and sand surfaces
Dense wrack Pixels with high-density beach wracks
Annotations were exported from CVAT in four different formats: (i) CVAT for images (XML); (ii) Segmentation Mask 1.0 (PNG); (iii) COCO (JSON); (iv) Ultralytics YOLO Segmentation 1.0 (TXT). These diverse annotation formats can be used for various applications including object detection and segmentation, and simplify the interaction with the dataset, making it more user-friendly. Further details are available in the README file.
Parameters
RGB values or any transformation in the colour space can be used as parameters.
Data sources
A SIRENA system consists of a set of RGB cameras mounted at the top of buildings on the beachfront. These cameras take oblique pictures of the beach, with overlapping sights, at 7.5 FPS during the first 10 minutes of each hour in daylight hours. From these pictures, different products are generated, including snapshots, which correspond to the frame of the video at the 5th minute. In the Balearic Islands, SIRENA stations are managed by the Balearic Islands Coastal Observing and Forecasting System (SOCIB), and are mounted at the top of hotels located in front of the coastline. The present dataset includes snapshots from the SIRENA systems operating since 2011 at Cala Millor (5 cameras) and Son Bou (4 cameras) beaches, located in Mallorca and Menorca islands (Balearic Islands, Spain), respectively. All latest and historical SIRENA images are available at the Beamon app viewer (https://apps.socib.es/beamon).
Data quality
All images included in BWILD have been supervised by the authors of the dataset. However, variable presence of beach segrass wracks across different beach segments and seasons impose a variable distribution of images across different SIRENA stations and cameras. Users of BWILD dataset must be aware of this variance. Further details are available in the README file.
Image resolution
The resolution of the images in BWILD is of 640x480 pixels.
Spatial coverage
The BWILD version 1.1.0 contains data from two SIRENA beach video-monitoring stations, encompassing two microtidal sandy beaches in the Balearic Islands, Spain. These are: Cala Millor (clm) and Son Bou (snb).
SIRENA station Longitude Latitude
clm 3.383 39.596

Lagrangian experiment in the Ibiza channel during Summer 2016, aiming to validate HF-Radar surface currents (new Antenna Pattern Measurement)
Continuous hourly coastal ocean surface current maps in the Ibiza Channel measured by High-Frequency Radars (HFR). HFR is nowadays the unique land-based remote sensing technology providing continuous maps of near-real surface currents (0.9 m) over wide areas (out of about 85 km from near shore) with high-spatial (3 km) and temporal resolution (hourly). The operation principle of HFRs for measuring coastal ocean surface currents is based on the Bragg resonant backscatter phenomenon: the HFR CODAR SeaSonde combined-antenna transmits electromagnetic waves with frequency of 13.5MHz (associated to wavelength of 22.2 m) and the ocean waves of half the transmitted electromagnetic wavelength (11.1 m) scatter the pulse back to the antenna. Two or more HFR sites are needed for computing the map of total surface current vectors in the overlapping coverage area."
