DWD’s fully automatic MOSMIX product optimizes and interprets the forecast calculations of the NWP models ICON (DWD) and IFS (ECMWF), combines these and calculates statistically optimized weather forecasts in terms of point forecasts (PFCs). Thus, statistically corrected, updated forecasts for the next ten days are calculated for about 5400 locations around the world. Most forecasting locations are spread over Germany and Europe. MOSMIX forecasts (PFCs) include nearly all common meteorological parameters measured by weather stations.

From 19th November to 19th December 2004 BGR conducted a marine geophysical cruise between 34°S and 36°S off Uruguay and between 46°S and 50°S off Argentine. The main research objective was to contribute to a better understanding of the initial breakup and the early opening of the South Atlantic. In continuation of our former work on the South Atlantic continental margins off Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Namibia and South Africa marine geophysical research (multi-channel seismics, refraction-/wide-angle reflection seismics, magnetics and gravity) was performed in close cooperation with the Argentine and Uruguayan authorities Comisión Nacional del Límite Exterior de la Plataforma Continental (COPLA) of Argentina and Servicio de Oceanograficia, Hidrograficia y Meteorologia de la Armada (SOHMA) of Uruguay. Multi-channel seismic lines with a total length of 3,754 km and additional 3540 km with the other geophysical methods were acquired . Along two lines refraction-/wide-angle reflection seismic work was carried out. The preliminary analyses of the new seismic data show different images of the crustal structures between Uruguay and southern Argentine with regard to the distribution and volume of offshore volcanic rocks (seaward dipping reflector sequences, SDRS) along the South American Atlantic margin. On the northern profiles between 34°S and 36°S one single well developed wedge of SDRS is present. Although the landward termination (‘feather edge’) on most of the lines is masked by multiples the average total width of the wedge across the margin seems to be 90 – 100 km and is very constant for this margin segment. This is strong contrast to the results from former cruises (BGR87, SO85 and BGR98) which covered the area between 38°S and 45°S. There, the SDRS showed distinct multiple wedges which in some places extend over 120 km across the continental slope. The investigation of the sedimentary section yielded that in the area off Uruguay widespread bottom simulating reflectors (BSR) are present. This indications for stable gas hydrates cover a total area of 7000 km2. One major aim of the cruise was to cover the transition between a volcanic passive margin and a non-volcanic passive resp. sheared margin. This was accomplished in the southern part of the investigated area. Two EW-trending profiles across the Argentine shelf into the Argentine Basin still show indications for SDRS but these structures are only 25 – 30 km wide. The profiles which extend from the NE to the SW crossing the Agulhas-Falkland Fracture Zone (AFFZ) onto the Falkland Plateau show the typical trend of a sheared margin. At the northern rim of the Falkland Plateau a set of small pre-rift half grabens were found indicating pre-rift extensional tectonic phases. The magnetic data in the area off Uruguay show lineations which are preliminary interpreted as chrons M0 to M3. This might indicate that the first (oldest) oceanic crust was created at a time around the magnetic polarity reversal between the normal interval M4 and the reversed interval M3 (126-127 Ma). Together with existing data from previous cruises this indicates that the breakup of the South Atlantic started further South because there magnetic chrons back to M9 (130 Ma) were identified. In the southernmost part of the margin at 47°S only the magnetic lineations M0 to M4 were identified in the oceanic domain Nevertheless, it is likely that between M4 and the assumed position of the continent ocean boundary/transition (COB/COT) older oceanic crust exists that for some reasons does not show correlatable lineations. The the free-air gravity map is dominated by the main topographic and structural features in the survey area. Rifted continental margins are characterized by prominent free-air gravity anomalies elongated parallel to the ocean-continent transition. The continental slope is considerably steeper in the North off Uruguay than in the South and thus the gravity high is much more pronounced in the North than in the South. The simple Bouguer anomaly map also shows the difference between the more gentle and wider continental slope in the South and the steeper slope in the North. The lowest Bouguer gravity values are found in the area of the basins on the continental shelf. Especially the Salado Basin in the prolongation of the Rio de la Plata and the Colorado Basin at about 40°S are indicated by Bouguer gravity anomaly highs. The interpretation by forward density modelling shows, however, the presence of SDRS units in the North of relative high density in the area of the continental slope. Whereas the modelling shows no indications for such volcanic bodies in the South. Although the MCS data indicate a small SDRS wedge but this body may be too small to cause an anomaly.From 17th April to 6th June 2003 BGR conducted a marine geophysical cruise between 30°S and 38°S off the Atlantic coast of South Africa. The main research objective was to contribute to a better understanding of the initial breakup and the early opening of the South Atlantic. In continuation of our former work on the South Atlantic continental margins off Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and Namibia marine geophysical research (multi-channel seismics, wide-angle refraction seismics, magnetics and gravity) was performed in cooperation with the Petroleum Agency South Africa (PASA). Multi-channel lines with a total lenght of 3,260 km, and additional 1,365km, with the other geophysical methods were acquired. Combined onshore/offshore refraction seismic work in cooperation with GeoForschungsZentrum Potsdam (Germany) and the Council for Geoscience (South Africa) was also part of the program.
The Uruguayan gravimetric geoid model UruGeoide110 was calculated by the Military Geographic Institute (IGM) in 2023. The extent is from 29.5° S to 35.5° S in latitude, and 52.5° W to 59.5° W in longitude, covering parts of Argentina and Brazil, with a grid resolution of 1´ x 1´. The geodetic reference system is SIRGAS ROU-98 (the reference ellipsoid is GRS80). The model is a combination of the EIGEN-6C4 geopotential model up to degree and order of 720, 10,429 land gravimetric stations plus 10,089 free air gravity anomalies in marine areas, based on the DTU13 model. The terrain data at the final 90 m resolution was taken from a 2017 Lidar survey in Uruguay with a 2.5 m initial resolution and SRTM (V2) for the external terrestrial data. The DT18 bathymetry model was used for the marine areas. Due to the total terrain data points (about 104 million), the overall area was divided into 4 overlapped blocks in the framework of the remove-compute-restore procedure. The reduced height anomalies were computed from the reduced gravity anomalies with Stokes 1D FFT and Wong Gore´s kernel modification (170-180 degrees). After adding back the residual terrain model effects and the contribution of the global geopotential model, the obtained quasi-geoid was transformed into a geoid model via Bouguer anomalies, even if the difference between the two models is just a few mm. A comparison with 51 GNSS/levelling stations shows a standard deviation of 10 cm. The geoid model is provided in ISG format 2.0 (ISG Format Specifications), while the file in its original data format is available at the model ISG webpage.

The official Uruguayan geoid model, called IGM110, was calculated by the Military Geographic Institute (IGM) in 2023 and consists of a grid of 1´ x 1´ geoidal undulations with a total of 151,981 points. The geodetic reference system is SIRGAS ROU-98 (the reference ellipsoid is GRS80). The extent is from 29.5° S to 35.5° S in latitude, and 52.5° W to 59.5° W in longitude, covering parts of Argentina and Brazil.

The resulting geoid was also adapted by a bias and a tilt to the national vertical system, Cabildo 1948, by fitting GNSS/levelling observations, with a mean of 1 cm and a standard deviation of 7 cm.

Im Forschungsvorhaben "Monitoring Internationale Ressourcenpolitik" (MoniRess II) wurden Politiken bezüglich der Nutzung natürlicher Rohstoffe von ausgewählten außereuropäischen Ländern über fast drei Jahre hinweg regelmäßig beobachtet und analysiert. Basierend auf einem Screening von 121 Ländern wurden folgende zwölf Länder, die sich überwiegend durch ein hohes globales oder regionales Ambitionsniveau im Politikfeld auszeichneten, ausgewählt: Chile, China, Indonesien, Japan, Marokko, Neuseeland, Ruanda, Singapur, Südafrika, Uruguay, USA und die Vereinigten Arabischen Emirate. Analysiert wurden übergreifende Strategien, Pläne bzw. Programme sowie Politiken im Bereich Extraktion, Produktion, Konsum und Abfall-/Kreislaufwirtschaft. Zusätzlich wurden Ansätze im Bausektor bzw. im Bereich Wohnen, in den Ländern verwendete Monitoringsysteme und Erfolgsmessungen untersucht. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass in allen untersuchten Ländern verschiedene politische Ansätze zur Erhöhung der effizienten Nutzung von Rohstoffen verfolgt werden, auch wenn Ausrichtung, Umfang und Umsetzung in den Ländern unterschiedlich sind. Besonders hervorzuheben sind die Ansätze in Japan und Chile, die - in Japan seit Jahrzehnten und in Chile seit kurzem - besonders viele innovative Elemente enthalten. In diesen beiden Ländern, aber auch in den anderen untersuchten Ländern konnten viele Beispiele gefunden werden, die Anregungen für die deutsche Rohstoffpolitik geben können.
