The OceanGliders program started in 2016 to support active coordination and enhancement of global glider activity. contributes the international efforts Global Ocean Observation System (GOOS) for Climate, Health, Operational Services. It brings together marine scientists engineers operating gliders around world: (1) observe long-term physical, biogeochemical, biological ocean processes phenomena that are relevant societal applications; and, (2) contribute GOOS through real-time delayed mode...
Sustained observations allow for the tracking of change in oceanography and ecosystems, however, these are rare, particularly Southern Hemisphere. To address this part, Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) implemented a network nine National Reference Stations (NRS). The builds on one long-term location, where monthly water sampling has been sustained since 1940s two others that commenced 1950s. In-situ continuously moored sensors an enhanced regime now collect more than 50...
The Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS) and its partners have worked together over the past decade to break down barriers between open-ocean coastal observing, scientific disciplines, operational research institutions. Here we discuss some GOOS successes challenges from decade, present ideas for moving forward, including highlights of 2030 Strategy published in 2019. OceanObs'09 meeting Venice 2009 resulted a remarkable consensus on need common set guidelines global ocean observing...
This paper reviews the design of Tropical Pacific Observing System (TPOS) and its governance takes a forward look at prospective change. The initial findings TPOS 2020 Project embrace new strategic approaches technologies in user-driven variable focus Framework for Ocean Observing. User requirements arise from climate prediction research, change record, coupled modeling data assimilation more generally. Requirements include on upper ocean air-sea interactions, sampling diurnal variations,...
This paper examines the characteristics of planetary wave signatures that have been found in Along Track Scanning Radiometer averaged sea surface temperature (ASST) record for 1991–1996. Longitude‐time plots every latitude between 5° and 50°, north south, reveal westward propagating wave‐like patterns at many locations, whose speed decreases with like baroclinic Rossby waves. A two‐dimensional Radon transform method is used to measure its variation location time, which broadly matches speeds...
The Joint Committee for Oceanography and Marine Meteorology (JCOMM), a joint technical commission of IOC UNESCO WMO, has devised coordination mechanism the fit-for-purpose delivery an end-to-end system, from ocean observations to met-ocean operational services. This paper offers complete overview activities carried out by JCOMM status achievements up 2017. stakeholders are WMO Members Member States, their research Institutions, which mandated devise international strategy advance toward...
Building on the successful Argo network of seafaring temperature and salinity sensors, work is underway to deploy 1,000 floats equipped study ocean biogeochemistry in greater detail than ever.
In order to gain a better understanding of the interactions processes and properties earth system how these are changing with time, it is essential that there sustained stream high quality data on marine environment. This must extend from its surface underlying seabed use matrix interlinked platform types, each specific advantages. Included in this global array fixed point or Eulerian observatories which have several unique capabilities. These include ability collect samples (water, biota...
Climate change and variability are major societal challenges, the ocean is an integral part of this complex variable system. Key to understanding ocean's role in Earth's climate system study sea-ice physical processes, including its interactions with atmosphere, cryosphere, land biosphere. These processes include those linked circulation; storage redistribution heat, carbon, salt other water properties; air-sea exchanges momentum, freshwater, carbon gasses. Measurements physics variables...
Abstract Russian data from five cruises during the period 1949 to 1952 are compared with observations taken World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) P1W in 1993 examine changes which may have occurred Sea of Okhotsk latter half last century. A basin‐wide warming (0.1°‐0.3°C) and freshening (0.05–0.1 psu) was found over part 20th Since is thought be major source for North Pacific Intermediate Water (NPIW), calculations were made determine whether or not these water properties consistent...
This paper presents a study of the characteristics extra-tropical oceanic Rossby waves from datasets Sea Surface Height (SSH), Temperature (SST) and ocean colour. The main focus is on propagation speed comparison made between observational results speeds predicted by classical theory most recent extended waves. There also discussion, with an example, additional information that can be derived wave signatures in different datasets.
Abstract We present the Transiting Exoplanet Surveying Satellite light curve of intermediate polar YY Draconis (YY Dra, also known as DO Dra). The power spectrum indicates that while there is stream-fed accretion for most observational period, a day-long, flat-bottomed low state at beginning 2020 during which only periodic signal ellipsoidal variation and no appreciable flickering. interpret this to be complete cessation accretion, phenomenon has been observed once before in an polar....
The largest earthquake of 2010 by magnitude (MW8.8), and the subject this article, struck south-central Chile in early hours 27 February 2010. was a “mega-thrust” event, involving rupture section Nazca-South American plate boundary, where Nazca dips at shallow angle beneath Pacific margin South America.
 Understanding event its effects, including tsunami is particular significance to urban centres that share close proximity “subduction zones”. These include Seattle, Vancouver, Tokyo...
The Tropical Atlantic Observing System (TAOS) review was proposed by the CLIVAR Region Panel (ARP) and has been organized ARP in close cooperation with PIRATA consortium. is intended to evaluate scientific progress since last recommend actions advance sustained observing efforts tropical Atlantic. structure of report an executive summary that introduces main societal drivers provides a recommendations where these are more thoroughly discussed. core text then proceeds following order: (1)...
More than 60 scientists and program officials from 13 countries met at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography for Tropical Pacific Observing System (TPOS) 2020 Workshop. The workshop, although motivated in part by dramatic decline NOAA's Atmosphere Ocean (TAO) buoy reporting mid‐2012 to early 2014 (see http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014‐03‐07/aging‐el‐nino‐buoys‐getting‐fixed‐as‐weather‐forecasts‐at‐risk.html ), evaluated needs tropical observing initiated efforts develop a more resilient...
Presenting at the 2014 North Carolina Serials Conference, Ginny Boyer and Virginia Bacon of East University (ECU) discuss how three libraries on campus—Joyner Library, Music Laupus Health Sciences Library—created a brand an accompanying web framework to transform previously disparate user experiences into unified whole. They begin by explaining some roadblocks that historically had stopped collaboration then outline what techniques circumstances helped overcome these issues. Of techniques,...
