Implementation Plan for the Global Observing System for Climate in Support of the UNFCCC (2010 Update) Action Action O22 Action: Develop technology for underway plankton survey capabilities. Who: Parties’ national research agencies, working with SCOR and GOOS/OOPC. Time-Frame: Continuous. Performance Indicators: Successful pilot deployment of new technologies. Annual Cost Implications: 1-10M US$ (Mainly by Annex-I Parties). Action O23 Action: Establish a global network of long-term observation sites covering all major ocean habitats and encourage collocation of physical, biological and ecological measurements. Who: Parties’ national research and operational agencies, supported by GOOS/PICO, OOPC, GRAs, and other partners. Time-Frame: 2014. Performance Indicators: Reporting on implementation status of network. Annual Cost Implications: 30-100M US$ (50% in non-Annex-I Parties). Action O24 [IP-04 O25] Action: Development of a plan for systematic global full-depth water column sampling for ocean physical and carbon variables in the coming decade; implementation of that plan. Who: National research programmes supported by the GO-SHIP project and IOCCP. Time-Frame: Continuing. Performance Indicator: Published internationally-agreed plan from the GO-SHIP process, implementation tracked via data submitted to archives. Percentage coverage of the sections. Annual Cost Implications: 10-30M US$ (Mainly by Annex-I Parties). Action O25 [IP-04 O26] Action: Sustain the Ship-of-Opportunity XBT/XCTD transoceanic network of about 40 sections. Who: Parties’ national agencies, coordinated through the Ship Observations Team of JCOMM. Time-Frame: Continuing. Performance Indicator: Data submitted to archive. Percentage coverage of the sections. Annual Cost Implications: 1-10M US$ (Mainly by Annex-I Parties). Action O26 [IP-04 O27] Action: Sustain the network of about 3000 Argo global profiling floats, reseeding the network with replacement floats to fill gaps, and maintain density (about 800 per year). Who: Parties participating in the Argo Project and in cooperation with the Observations Coordination Group of JCOMM. Time-Frame: Continuous. Performance Indicator: Number of reporting floats. Percentage of network deployed. Annual Cost Implications: 30-100M US$ (10% in non-Annex-I Parties). Action O27 [IP-04 O28] Action: Complete implementation of the current Tropical Moored Buoy, a total network of about 120 moorings. Who: Parties national agencies, coordinated through the Tropical Mooring Panel of JCOMM. Time-Frame: Array complete by 2011. Performance Indicator: Data acquisition at International Data Centres. Annual Cost Implications: 30-100M US$ 119 (20% in non-Annex-I Parties). Action O28 [IP-04 O29] Action: Develop projects designed to assemble the in situ and satellite data into a composite reference reanalysis dataset, and to sustain projects to assimilate the data into models in ocean reanalysis projects. Who: Parties’ national ocean research programmes and space supported by WCRP. Time-Frame: Continuous. Performance Indicator: Project for data assembly launched, availability and scientific use of ocean reanalysis products. Annual Cost Implications: 1-10M US$ (10% in non-Annex-I Parties).

Implementation Plan for the Global Observing System for Climate in Support of the UNFCCC (2010 Update) Action Action O29 [IP-04 O30] Action: Work with research programmes to develop autonomous capability for biogeochemical and ecological variables, for deployment on OceanSITES and in other pilot project reference sites. Who: Parties’ national ocean research programmes, in cooperation with the Integrated Marine Biogeochemistry and Ecosystem Research, Surface Ocean – Lower Atmosphere Study, and Land-Oceans Interactions in the Coastal Zone of IGBP. Time-Frame: Continuing. Performance Indicators: Systems available for measuring pCO 2 , ocean acidity, oxygen, nutrients, phytoplankton, marine biodiversity, habitats, with other ecosystem parameters available for use in reference network applications. Annual Cost Implications: 1-10M US$ (50% in non-Annex-I Parties). Action O30 Action: Deploy a global pilot project of oxygen sensors on profiling floats. Who: Parties, in cooperation with the Argo Project and the Observations Coordination Group of JCOMM. Time-Frame: Continuous. Performance Indicator: Number of floats reporting oxygen. Annual Cost Implications: 1-10M US$ (10% in non-Annex-I Parties). Action O31 [IP-04 O32] Action: Monitoring the implementation of the IOC Data Policy. Who: JCOMM. Time-Frame: Continuous. Performance Indicator: Reports by JCOMM and IODE to the IOC. Annual Cost Implications: 1-10M US$ (10% in non-Annex-I Parties). Action O32 [IP-04 O33] Action: Develop and implement comprehensive ocean data management procedures, building on the experience of the JCOMM Pilot Project for WIGOS. Who: IODE and JCOMM. Time-Frame: 2012. Performance Indicator: Improved standards and accessibility of ocean data; Report of the 4 th session of JCOMM. Annual Cost Implications: 1-10M US$ (20% in non-Annex-I Parties). Action O33 [IP-04 O34] Action: Undertake a project to develop an international standard for ocean metadata. Who: IODE and JCOMM in collaboration with WMO CBS and ISO. Time-Frame: Standard developed by 2011. Performance Indicator: Publication of standard for an agreed initial set of the ECVs. Plan to progress to further ECV. Annual Cost Implications: 1-10M US$ (Mainly by Annex-I Parties). Action O34 [IP-04 O35] Action: Undertake a project to apply the innovations emerging from the WMO Information System, and innovations such as OPeNDAP to develop an ocean data transport system for data exchange between centres and for open use by the ocean community generally. Who: JCOMM. Time-Frame: Report by 2012. Performance Indicator: Report published. Annual Cost Implications:
