Ocean Carbon and BiogeochemistryOcean Carbon and Biogeochemistry
• OCB collaboratory one year proposal funded by NSF in May 2005
• PIs: Dave Glover, Ken Buesseler, Scott Doney• original proposal was entitled “Coordination and Data
Management for Ocean Carbon Cycle Research» data management support for targeted programs to improve
accessibility to ocean biogeochemistry data » scientific workshop on recent advances and future
opportunities (held at WHOI, August, 2005)» name changed from OCCC/OCCR to OC&B in June 2005
and to OCB in January 2006, then back to OC&B Oct 2006

VERTIGO and OCBVERTIGO and OCB
• VERTIGO is one of five participating programs in the OCB collaboratory
• CARIACO time-series, EDDIES, MedFlux, and SOFeX
• each independent project was collecting biogeochemistry data and each had an aspect we found ‘intriguing’ » OCB is itself a research project» how difficult would it be to take data from several different
projects at various stages in their life cycle and create a relational database

What can you do ?What can you do ?
• contribute data to VERTIGO project office
• metadata metadata metadata» spatial and temporal» methodology (acquisition and processing)» quality control procedures» any publications associated with the data
• use the database, provide feedback

What next ?What next ?• continued ingestion of VERTIGO data
into online OCB database
• synthesis of data from Niskin bottle samples Niskin bottle summary data product (e.g. full cruise merged Niskin bottle data)
• BCO DMO funding will support development of an enhanced data system interface(data discovery: map and improved search)
