OD34A:
Integrating Biological and Physicochemical Observations into the Ocean Observing Framework to Inform Understanding of Ecosystem Function and Ecosystem-Based Decision Making II Posters


Session ID#: 9235

Session Description:
The rapidly expanding efforts to integrate biological, physical, and chemical measurements into a “whole ecosystem” understanding of coastal and oceanic regimes will play an increasing role in informing conservation and management needs.  Sustained, interdisciplinary observing now spans spatial, temporal, and trophic scales, utilizing a wide variety of platforms (e.g., moored observatories, gliders, profiling floats, satellites) and  technologies, including rapidly advancing biological observing capability, such as eDNA tools for assessing biodiversity, in-situ bio-optical instrumentation for measuring planktonic assemblages, acoustic telemetry for tracking tagged animals, and passive acoustic monitoring of marine mammal vocalizations.  Expanding national and international networks contribute to the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS), the Marine Biodiversity Observation Network (MBON), Animal Telemetry Network (ATN) and Ocean Tracking Network (OTN), Ocean Observatories Initiative (OOI), Ocean Networks Canada (ONC), Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER), and other programs collecting long-term biological observations.  Incorporation of living marine resources into the ocean observing framework is a high priority as we strive toward a long-term understanding of ecosystem trends to inform policy in a world faced by multiple natural and anthropogenic stressors to our coastal and marine environments.  This session will address both advances in sensors and in systems necessary to achieve this long-term understanding.
