Alaska Ocean Observing System - Integrated Ocean Observing System
The Alaska Ocean Observing System (AOOS) is one of 13 regional systems across the US coast that represent NOAA’s Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS), a national-regional partnership working to use ocean data and information products in innovative ways to improve maritime safety, enhance the economy, and protect our environment. The data is available in real time, near-real time, or retrospectively. Easier and better access to this information is improving our ability to understand and predict coastal events such as storms, wave heights, sea levels, and ecosystem change. Such knowledge is needed for everything from blue economy businesses such as commercial fishing and aquaculture to subsistence use to coastal planning.

Animal Telemetry Network - Integrated Ocean Observing System
Gathering information on the behavior and movement of marine animals is an essential part of the responsibilities of our national agencies charged with protecting endangered and threatened marine species as well as providing ecosystem-based management of commercially harvested marine resources. This data and information, collected remotely via acoustic and satellite telemetry techniques, assists specifically with implementing the Endangered Species Act, the Marine Mammal Protection Act and the Fur Seal Act, performing National Environmental Policy Act analyses, providing Incidental Harassment Authorizations and conducting Section 7 Interagency Consultations.
The data is applied broadly to assess marine animal habitat use, detect changes in their migratory routes in relation to oil & gas activities and climate variability, monitor changing movement patterns with increasing ship traffic to assist with marine mammal avoidance and improve abundance/population estimates to ensure both the conservation and sustainable management of commercially harvested species as well as responsibly sustained subsistence livelihoods.
The multi-agency U.S. Animal Telemetry Network (ATN) has been established to provide unity, stability and continuity to the national infrastructure that facilitates the collection, management and availability of this marine animal telemetry data. To accomplish its mission, the ATN is being implemented in three Phases and on these three foundational pillars: 1) Building Alliances and Collaborations, 2) Providing Telemetry Data Aggregation, Management, Display and Delivery, and 3) Funding High Priority Regional Baseline Animal Telemetry Observations.

Aquacosm Project
EU network of mesocosms facilities for research on marine and freshwater ecosystems open for global collaboration.
Rivers, lakes, estuaries and the open ocean are connected and it’s becoming evident that ecosystem processes act on many scales, including global. Despite this, aquatic research is still divided in marine and freshwater sciences, with separate funding sources, and experimental science is often conducted at single sites without international coordination. To challenge these problems, the FvB-IGB-lead project AQUACOSM is funded by the first international call (EU H2020-INFRAIA) to coordinate research, develop common best practices and open both freshwater and marine large-scale research infrastructures (mesocosms) for international cross-discipline participation.

Arctic Ocean Diversity
Arctic Ocean Biodiversity is a Census of Marine Life project aimed at coordinating research efforts examining the diversity in each of the three major realms: sea ice, water column and sea floor, including fish, mammals & birds. This program will consolidate what is known and fill remaining gaps in our knowledge: it leads the Arctic Ocean diversity cluster within the International Polar Year.
The Arctic Ocean is unique. It is the most extreme ocean in regard to the seasonality of light and its year-round existing ice cover. Arctic seas hold a multitude of unique life forms highly adapted in their life history, ecology and physiology to the extreme and seasonal conditions of this environment. Knowledge of what lives in the Arctic Ocean is limited due to the logistical challenges imposed by its multiyear ice and inhospitable climate.
The Arctic Ocean is the region where the impacts of climate change are strongest expressed. On-going climate warming and reduction in sea ice makes the effort to identify the diversity of its life an urgent issue. Species level information is essential to discussions on climate change or human impact. These effects can only be detected through long-term monitoring of key species, communities and processes. The availability of solid baseline data is crucial.

Arctic Regional Ocean Observing System
An Arctic Regional Ocean Observing System (Arctic ROOS) was established in December 2007 established by a group of 14 member institutions from nine European countries working actively with ocean observation and modelling systems for the Arctic Ocean and adjacent seas.
Arctic ROOS will promote, develop and maintain operational monitoring and forecasting of ocean circulation, water masses, ocean surface conditions, sea ice and biological/chemical constituents.
One of the goals of Arctic ROOS is to contribute to the legacy of IPY, maintaining cost-effective and useful observing systems after the end of IPY.
Arctic ROOS intends to include more members from countries outside of Europe and become a GOOS Regional Alliance for the Arctic. Arctic ROOS has established a secretariat at the Nansen Environmental and Remote Sensing Center in Norway.
Arctic ROOS is a contribution to the IPY project no. 379: "IPY Operational Oceanography for the Arctic Ocean and adjacent seas" coordinated by Prof. Ola M. Johannessen. The project was submitted in 2005 and endorsed by IPY in 2006.

The Arctic System Science Program (ARCSS) funds proposals or groups of proposals that advance our understanding of the Arctic as a coupled system, and how the Arctic system interacts with the Earth System. ARCSS projects are often interdisciplinary and focus on the relationships among physical, chemical, biological, and human processes with emphasis on the interactions among system components. The cycles of carbon, water, and energy are important to consider in investigating the functioning of the Arctic system. Research that seeks to understand how humans drive or respond to environmental change are also encouraged.
The Arctic System Science Program (ARCSS) funds proposals or groups of proposals that advance our understanding of the Arctic as a coupled system, and how the Arctic system interacts with the Earth System. ARCSS projects are often interdisciplinary and focus on the relationships among physical, chemical, biological, and human processes with emphasis on the interactions among system components. The cycles of carbon, water, and energy are important to consider in investigating the functioning of the Arctic system. Research that seeks to understand how humans drive or respond to environmental change are also encouraged.

Study of the influence of physical, chemical and biological conditions in the damage and protection of Underwater Historical Heritage CTM2009-08668 and CTM2010-1636.
The ARQUEOMONITOR Project, supported by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness and FEDER (CTM2009-08668 and CTM2010-16363) studied in what grade, the generation, conservation or degradation of archaeological sites are influenced by marine environmental variables, employing two wrecks of the same chronology subjected to very different environmental conditions, Fougueux and Bucentaure (1805).
In order to correlate the conservation status achieved at each site with the local marine environmental conditions we have studied the main physical, chemical and biological factors that can impact on the shipwreck materials. Also, modern samples of the materials usually found in these shipwrecks have been disposed at each site, and their evolution over time has been studied, preventing thus the alteration of archaeological remains. The results obtained allowed to develop new in situ methods for protection of deposits and its elements, and develop predictive models of permanence through knowledge of materials and analysis of risk factors imposed by the marine environment.
By combining the major milestones of the project (environmental monitoring, degradation studies and methods of safeguarding) it has been developed a standardized Archaeological Management Plan which compares sites through the establishment of similarities and differences.
Now, the results are being dumped into a Data Portal, which will facilitate access to the information for researchers from different areas of knowledge involved in the management of the Archaeological underwater heritage who try to predict short-term potential threats on deposits.

AtlantOS Program
AtlantOS is working to advance the implementation of joint observational elements in the Atlantic Ocean to improve the basin-scale system and its information products. In parallel, it will also develop specific, topic related use cases which attract the engagement of the wider ocean observing community. AtlantOS will focus on following topics.
The AtlantOS program is developing priority actions that support the basin scale implementation and cooperation between networks, a common and interoperable data infrastructure, and sharing of best practices.
In addition, implementing an All-Atlantic Ocean Observing System, the AtlantOS program is supporting several ocean observing use cases with specific thematic foci that showcase the added value of a more integrated ocean observing system.
AtlantOS supports the evolution and implementation of the system as a contribution to the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS) and the GEO Blue Planet initiative and benefits from support of the All-Atlantic Ocean Research Alliance.
The establishment of the AtlantOS program benefited from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme project AtlantOS (grant agreement No. 633211).
The AtlantOS program Secretariat is supported by the German Marine Research Consortium (KDM).

AtlantOS project
AtlantOS was a BG 8 (Developing in-situ Atlantic Ocean Observations for a better management and sustainable exploitation of the maritime resources) research and innovation project that proposes the integration of ocean observing activities across all disciplines for the Atlantic, considering European as well as non-European partners.
The vision of AtlantOS was to improve and innovate Atlantic observing by using the Framework of Ocean Observing to obtain an international, more sustainable, more efficient, more integrated, and fit-for-purpose system. Hence, the AtlantOS initiative has a long-lasting and sustainable contribution to the societal, economic and scientific benefit arising from this integrated approach. This was achieved by improving the value for money, extent, completeness, quality and ease of access to Atlantic Ocean data required by industries, product supplying agencies, scientist and citizens.
The overarching target of the AtlantOS initiative was to deliver an advanced framework for the development of an integrated Atlantic Ocean Observing System that goes beyond the state-of–the-art, and leaves a legacy of sustainability after the life of the project (see AtlantOS High-Level Strategy and find out more about the AtlantOS program).
The legacy derived from the AtlantOS aims:
- to improve international collaboration in the design, implementation and benefit sharing of ocean observing,
- to promote engagement and innovation in all aspects of ocean observing,
- to facilitate free and open access to ocean data and information,
- to enable and disseminate methods of achieving quality and authority of ocean information,
- to strengthen the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS) and to sustain observing systems that are critical for the Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service and its applications and,
- to contribute to the aims of the Galway Statement on Atlantic Ocean Cooperation.
The project was organized along work packages on: i) observing system requirements and design studies, ii) enhancement of ship-based and autonomous observing networks, iii) interfaces with coastal ocean observing systems, iv) integration of regional observing systems, v) cross-cutting issues and emerging networks, vi) data flow and data integration, vii) societal benefits from observing /information systems, viii) system evaluation and resource sustainability. Engagement with wider stakeholders including end-users of Atlantic Ocean observation products and services was also key throughout the project.
The AtlantOS initiative contributed to achieving the aims of the Galway Statement on Atlantic Ocean Cooperation that was signed in 2013 by the EU, Canada and the US, launching a Transatlantic Ocean Research Alliance to enhance collaboration to better understand the Atlantic Ocean and sustainably manage and use its resources.

Australia Ocean Biodiversity Information System
The Ocean Biodiversity Information System (OBIS) is an international federation of organisations and people sharing a vision to make marine biodiversity data, from all over the world, freely available. It functions as a provider of global geo-referenced information on marine species. It provides a single entry point to query expert databases on species and habitats and provides a variety of tools for visualising relationships between marine species and their environment. OBIS was also the information component of the Census of Marine Life Program.
OBIS Australia seeks to advance the goals of OBIS in the Australian region, as one of a growing network of Regional OBIS Nodes. Specifically, the aims of OBIS Australia are:
to encourage the sharing of marine species data from the Australian region into the OBIS international data network
to enable users to search for marine data from the international OBIS network users.
From here you can find out more information about OBIS Australia and the OBIS program in general. Please use the links in the navigation panel to access these functions and the other parts of the OBIS Australia site.
OBIS Australia (OBISAU) was initially created as a partnership between the former National Oceans Office, Department of the Environment and Water Resources (now Department of the Environment and Energy) and CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere, supported in its start-up phase by funding from the U.S. Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, administered via the international OBIS Secretariat, as an operational component of the Census of Marine Life.
From August 17, 2020, the Information and Data Centre has moved from CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere to the CSIRO National Collections and Marine Infrastructure. There are no changes to how we operate in our ongoing provision of OBIS data.

Baltic Operational Oceanographic System
The BOOS (Baltic Operational Oceanographic System) co-operation was formed in 1997 with the aim to promote and develop an operational oceanographic infrastructure including routine collection, interpretation and presentation of in situ and satellite data. This information is necessary in order to improve efficiency of marine operations, reduce risks for accidents, optimise monitoring of marine
environment and climate, improve assessment of fish stocks and improve foundation of public
marine management.
The BOOS Vision 2015 intends to carry on existing concepts and ideas formulated in the
BOOS Plan covering the period 1999 up to 2003 and in the BOOS Strategy Plan for 2004 –
2010 but at the same time guide and develop the daily work of BOOS, taking into account the
changes taking place in Europe and in particular in the Baltic region.
The implementation of the EC GMES core services in several sectors and presently financed
by EC (FP7) is the overarching change in the marine sector. The marine core service
implementation plan is the guiding document, while the MyOcean R&D project is building
the prototype marine infrastructure. In addition the Maritime Policy in situ data programme
EMODNET is another important operational activity at European level to take into account
for BOOS.
In the Baltic area the implementation of the Baltic Sea Regional Strategy and its
environmental pillar the Marine Strategy Framework Directive is ongoing. Furthermore,
marine spatial planning is a new concept introduced to support sustained and secure
exploitation of marine resources. The Baltic Sea Action Plan is launched by the HELCOM
member countries to combat eutrophication, ship emissions and oil spills to name a few of the
actions planned. While, climate change and society adaptation to these changes is a future
need, detailed basic information is wanted for decision making at local as well as at regional
scales.
Not the least to be aware of is the ecosystem approach, becoming the overarching formula for
activities and plans. The principle means that mankind and society activities play a key role in
influencing the ecosystem and we need to incorporate these factors in the operational
oceanographic system in the future.
