Talks - Day 3
Session G: EXTENSION OF ARGO TO MARGINAL SEAS, SEA ICE AND BIOGEOCHEMISTRY
Extending Argo into marginal Seas: the Mediterranean and Black Seas - P.M. Poulain, Istituto Nazionale di Oceanografia e di Geofisica Sperimentale - OGS Italy
Mediterranean intermediate circulation estimated from Argo data - M. Menna, Istituto Nazionale di Oceanografia e di Geofisica Sperimentale - OGS Italy
Oxygen dynamics in the Black Sea: Two years of Argo profiling floats data. - E. Stanev, Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht, Germany
Observing the ice-covered oceans around Antarctica by profiling floats - A. Wong, University of Washington, U.S.A.
Bio-Argo and the emergence of profiling float as key platforms to measure ocean biogeochemistry. - E. Boss, MISC Lab, Univ. of Maine, U.S.A
FINAL ROUND TABLE : PREPARING THE NEXT DECADE FOR ARGO
Objectives/Introduction: Dean Roemmich
– Development/progression of international consensus (beyond OO’09 CWPs)
– Guidance for the Argo Steering Team
Vision statements for the evolution of Argo:
Describe where we are now, what Argo's target should be (requirements if known) and the pathway for getting there (including maturity and feasibility issues). Vision statements should represent the broader community views, (and should include integration with other observing system elements).
