Abstract
The International Group for Marine Ecological Time Series (IGMETS) seeks to integrate a suite of in situ biogeochemical variables from time-series stations, together with satellite-derived information, to look at holistic changes within different ocean regions, explore plausible reasons and connections at a global level, and highlight any locations of especially large changes that may be of special importance. This work will produce a series of comprehensive, integrated reports which will be published under the auspices of IOC-UNESCO and brings together the ship-based, biogeochemical time-series community in a way never before attempted.
