Deep Ocean Observing Strategy - A Global Ocean Observing System Project Report

Author(s): Physical/Climate: Patrick Heimbach, Gregory C. Johnson & Bernadette Sloyan. Carbon/Biogeochemistry: Toste Tanhua & Rik Wanninkhof. Biodiversity/Ecosystems: Antje Boetius, Lisa Levin & Myriam Sibuet.

The objective of this report is to develop a statement of requirements, and an initial strategy for sustained global deep ocean observations; considering all Essential Ocean Variables, regions, and technologies - and extract a collection of high priority and feasible actions for the next 5-10 years. And, ultimately to provide a consensus document that aids in individual and national fundraising efforts for elements in support of a deep ocean observing system.
