Global Ocean Observing System 249d ago

During this webinar, we discuss the critical roles of zooplankton and phytoplankton Essential Ocean Variables (EOVs). These EOVs serve as indicators of ocean health, underpin marine food webs, and directly inform global environmental policy and management decisions. Each presentation outlines standardized observation requirements, current implementation status, and practical ways researchers and institutions can contribute data to enhance global ocean monitoring efforts. Join the upcoming GOOS BioEco EOV webinars: https://goosocean.org/webinars/webinar-series-biology-and-ecosystems-essential-ocean-variables/ --- About GOOS: The Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS) is the global home of ocean observing expertise and systematic coordination. We lead and support a community of international, regional and national ocean observing programmes, governments, UN agencies, research organizations and individual scientists. Our Core Team of expert panels, observing networks, alliances and projects, supported by the GOOS Management Team, is in touch with ocean observing and forecasting around the world. We are a programme led by the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) of UNESCO, with UN and science co-sponsors: World Meteorological Organization (WMO), UN Environmental Programme (UNEP) and the International Science Council (ISC).
