An international team: GODAE OceanView


The MyOcean projectin Europe

Europe/GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security) The monitoring and forecasting component of the

European Marine Service (the core service)


• Science Team– Currently ~30 members– Representatives from national ocean forecasting centres, task team co-chairs,

representatives from international/intergovernmental research groups, scientific experts

• Task Teams– 5 active TTs – TT chairs are members of the GODAE OceanView Science Team

• Project Office– 1 person – located at the Met Office (UK)

• The Patrons’ group– Decision makers of national centers + observation agencies

– Provide support to GODAE OceanView (financial support to the project office)

– Promote GODAE OceanView, provide guidance, visibility, …

The OceanView Teams


Who are the members of the GODAE OceanView Science Team ?

• Scientists– Involved in their country in the development of

operational oceanography– Having skills and experience in Data Assimilation and

Modeling (primary focus)– Whose activity in the field is supported by the country

• Self funding base: development of the workplan, meetings,…– Having some capacity to decide

• Take decisions and ensure they are implemented• Report to the science team

• India and Brazil entered the GODAE OceanView Science Team recently


Currently 5 TASK TEAMS: address specific topics of particular importance to GODAE OceanView require collaboration with international research programs or other groups (e.g. coastal community):

• Inter-comparison and Validation Task Team IV-TT(Matt Martin & Fabrice Hernandez)

• Observing System Evaluation OSEval-TT (Peter Oke & Gilles Larnicol)• Coastal Ocean and Shelf Seas COSS-TT

(Pierre De Mey & Villy Kourafalou)• Marine Ecosystem Analysis and Prediction MEP-TT

(Rosa Barciela & Pierre Brasseur)• Short-to-Medium-Range Coupled Prediction SMRCP-TT

(Gary Brassington)

GODAE OceanView achievements


Meeting structure• TT parallel meetings (+ patron phone conf)

– Monday: IV-TT, OSEVal TT, COSS-TT– Wednesday: SMRCP-TT, Patrons’ meeting

• Tuesday (Cocktail):– reports from IOC, ET-OOFS, GOV-GSOP-CLIVAR workshop, OOPC, ESA– Start reports on TTs: OSE-Val + IV– Start reports from Nat systems Fr, Ca,

• Wednesday (Dinner):– Continue with Au, ECMWF, Jp, ECCO– Obs: ARGO, OST, GHRSST,

• Thursday:– PICO, IOOS, South African Summerschool– RTOFS, Br, It, HYCOM, UK, Ch– COSS, MEP, SMRCP TTs– Report from the patrons’ teleconf

• Friday (morning):– Work plan review,– Discussion paper (review/symposium)

• Discussion slots every day: More time to discuss than during GOVST I and GOVST II


Reminder

• The National reports are due• The TT reports also

– All these reports will serve the purpose of the final GOV evaluation (WRT workplan ?)

• The discussion on Friday is important– Review, Symposium, a decision has to be

taken

• Also important: to gather inputs for the Patron’s meeting (before Wednesday)
