    The XPRIZE Big Ocean Button Challenge: Vote Now!

    Friday, 29 September 2017

    We would like to point your attention to the Big Ocean Button Challenge, an app competition sponsored by the XPRIZE Ocean Initiative, to advance development in ocean data sets in categories such as Fishing, Shipping and Trade, Ocean Acidification, Public Safety and Exploration. There are 20 amazing submissions that are now competing for $100,000 in prizes and XPRIZE is asking us to help them decide the winning solutions. Please visit the Big Ocean Button Challenge page to view the apps and cast your vote: https://herox.com/bigoceanbutton. You are encouraged to vote for the mobile app that best unlocks ocean data for public or private benefit, ideally while supporting responsible use and protection of our ocean. The Big Ocean Button Challenge is a smaller competition held as part of the XPRIZE Ocean Initiative efforts which started in 2010 with a call to develop 5 Ocean focused XPRIZE competitions by 2020.

     

    Voting for the Big Ocean Button Challenge will remain open until 5pm PST on October 19th and the winners will be announced early in 2018.

    SOLAS-IMBER-IOCCP-GCP-CLIVAR-WCRP Meeting on future ocean carbon cycle research

    Friday, 22 September 2017

    In April 2017, SOLAS and IMBER have disbanded their two carbon working groups that, based on the Joint SOLAS/IMBER Carbon Implementation Plan, were charged with coordination and synthesis of ocean carbon research related to both: ocean surface and ocean interior. Seeking new science directions, SOLAS and IMBER proposed an open discussion amongst all and any programs interested in ocean carbon research. IOCCP, GCP, CLIVAR, WCRP C-challenge and SOLAS and IMBER representatives expressed interest in such discussion and an initial, scoping side-meeting during the ICDC10 in Interlaken was organized. The meeting was attended by 13 participants representing the above mentioned programs and was chaired by Nicolas Gruber, a former chair of the SOLAS/IMBER Carbon Working Group 2.

    Three new SCOR Working Groups approved

    Friday, 15 September 2017

    SCOR held its 2017 Annual Meeting last week in Cape Town, South Africa, celebrating the 60th anniversary of SCOR. An important feature of every SCOR annual meeting is consideration of proposals for new SCOR working groups. The proposals are reviewed by national SCOR committees, partner organizations, and others before the annual meeting and a significant portion of time at the meeting is devoted to discussing the proposals. This year three proposals were considered timely, relevant to SCOR and achievable using a SCOR working group approach.

    GOOS Biogeochemistry EOV Specification Sheets - version 2.0 released!

    Monday, 28 August 2017

    IOCCP as Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS) Biogeochemistry Expert Panel is happy to announce the release of GOOS Biogeochemistry Essential Ocean Variable (EOV) Specification Sheets version 2.0! The 2017 revision is the result of GOOS-wide dedicated efforts to better harmonize the EOV and associated concepts across all disciplines: physics & climate, biogeochemistry, biology & ecosystems; and to align the EOVs closer with the corresponding Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) developed by the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS - see the 2016 GCOS Implementation Plan for details).

     

    You can download the updated Biogoechemistry EOV Specification Sheets from our site HERE, and access the most recent versions of all GOOS EOVs from this site: www.goosocean.org/eov

    The International Group for Marine Ecological Time Series (IGMETS) time series status report published

    Tuesday, 22 August 2017

    The International Group for Marine Ecological Time Series (IGMETS) has released its report entitled “What are Marine Ecological Time Series telling us about the ocean? A status report” (http://igmets.net/2017 or pdfdownload). The report writing was generously supported by the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO (IOC), the International Ocean Carbon Coordination Project (IOCCP), the Ocean Carbon and Biogeochemistry Program (OCB), and the Korea Institute of Ocean Science & Technology (KIOST).

     

    This report presents an analysis and overview of oceanic trends through the end of 2012, based on a collection of over 340 in situ marine ecological time series, and supplemented with satellite-based spatio-temporal sea surface temperature and chlorophyll background fields. This report features electronic supplements in the form of a Metabase (http://igmets.net/metabase) and the IGMETS time series Explorer (http://igmets.net/explorer), which allow users to further expand on the information featured in the text. The information contained in the report and IGMETS metabase is relevant for a number of Essential Ocean Variables (EOVs), including the biogeochemistry ones.
