Examples
Short videos of EASy projects at work, including fish farms, ocean currents and drifters, satellite imagery, tuna fisheries and animal tracks.

EASy marine GIS showcase
Nine short simulations in EASy. Some use AquaModel; others use the Pelagic Habitat Analysis Module (PHAM).
AquaModel: aquaculture software for industry and government
The AquaModel plug-in for fish farms, modeling fish growth, feeding, and the farm's wastes in the water and the sediments.
Vessel tracking in EASy2
Tracks of fishing boats in the Adriatic over eight days, then real stored positions of ships and ferries in San Francisco Bay taken from their AIS records, played back with the Moving Tracks plug-in.
Fish farms in the Sea of Chiloé
Two fish farms in the Sea of Chiloé, Chile, give off plumes of nitrogen that spread with 3-D ocean currents, while drifters released at each farm are followed as the simulation runs.
DISCO: chlorophyll and currents off Oman
Satellite chlorophyll and modeled ocean currents in the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea, with a plot of chlorophyll along a transect that changes as the simulation runs.
TWISTS: sea turtle tracks
Sea turtle tracks in the Western Indian Ocean from the Turtles and Whales Information and Spatial Tracking Systems project.
FishScape: tuna in the Eastern Pacific
Skipjack, bigeye and yellowfin tuna populations in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, with fishing vessels from several coastal countries, from the NSF-funded FishScape project.
Gulf of Maine drifters
Drifters standing in for the larvae of marine invertebrates, released in five bays of the Gulf of Maine and carried by 3-D ocean currents with some random drift.
