    Abstract
    The Mediterranean Surface Exploration tool (MSET) tool allows exploring various ocean variables providing information on the sea surface of the Western Mediterranean Sea. These variables include five key Essential Ocean Variables ( EOVs , Tanhua et al., 2019): temperature, salinity, sea level, chlorophyll-a and currents, and two additional variables, temperature and salinity fronts, derived from the EOVs. The information is obtained from the SOCIB Western Mediterranean Operational system ( WMOP , Juza et al., 2016; Mourre et al., 2018) and from satellite data provided by Copernicus Marine Service ( CMEMS ). Oceanographic features can be explored as layers or time series at specific points defined by the user when double-clicking the layer on display. This tool is aimed for a wide range of end users in the field fisheries sustainability, conservation and education. The implementation fully relies on Web Map Services (WMS). All data handled by the tool is publically available .....
