The Future of Biogeochemical Ocean Time Series


Session ID#: 11222

Session Description:
Monitoring ocean change requires a sustained, globally distributed network of observatories that integrates shipboard, autonomous, and remote sensing platforms. Data intercomparability within such a network is facilitated by universally established guidelines and methodological approaches, a commitment to data sharing, and improved coordination and communication across sites and programs. This town hall, organized by the US Ocean Carbon and Biogeochemistry (OCB) Program’s Ocean Time-series Committee, will convene interested ocean scientists to share outcomes of recent time-series activities and coordination efforts and gather community feedback on mechanisms to strengthen this international network.
