From the Director:

Dear IOOS Community,

This week, National Ocean Service (NOS) leadership announced the release of the NOS Strategic Plan for 2024-2028 and released a new Strategic Plan landing page. Implementation of the plan will streamline priorities in response to our nation’s growing need for ocean, coastal, and Great Lakes products and services. 

NOS has now charted a course for the future as we continue to help solve challenges, including mitigating community and economic vulnerability, changing ecosystems, and the ever-expanding need for authoritative environmental information. The plan includes four priority areas which lay out NOS strategies, objectives, and outcomes:

  • Increase Coastal Resilience in the U.S.
  • Make Equity Central to Our Mission
  • Accelerate Growth of the Ocean Enterprise and the Blue Economy
  • Conserve, Restore, and Connect Healthy Coastal and Marine Ecosystems. 

In 2022, IOOS, NOAA, and the Department of Commerce released new strategic plans, and this new NOS strategy adds a new dimension to incorporate. Alignment of these strategies helps ensure that we continue to work toward coastal, ocean, and Great Lakes data and information needs across the nation.  You can learn more about the NOS Strategic Plan here, and find the DOC and NOAA Strategic Plans on the IOOS Enterprise Strategic Plan landing page. And watch out for our annual refresh — coming soon!

 

Thanks,
Carl

    • HFR Restored in Ocracoke, North Carolina: Congratulations to the SECOORA HFR teams at ECU and UNC on their restoration of the “OCRA” CODAR SeaSonde® station at Ocracoke, North Carolina!  OCRA was originally established as part of the NSF-funded PEACH (Processes driving Exchange At Cape Hatteras) project by SkIO’s Dana Savidge, but was destroyed during Hurricane Dorian in August 2019.  With NOAA IOOS funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) and SECOORA, along with contributions of spare parts from ECU, OCRA is back in operation telemetering its data in near real-time to the IOOS HFR National Network.  In addition to supporting U.S. IOOS applications of HFR like USCG search-and-rescue, data from OCRA are being used to inform several funded efforts like the NASA Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) calibration and validation project and an NSF-funded investigation to better understand meander scale and long-term Gulf Stream variability in the Cape Hatteras region, to ultimately provide Gulf Stream nowcast/hindcasts.
  • Gliders 
    • CARICOOS recovers hurricane season gliders: CARICOOS is planning to execute the recovery of sea gliders as the hurricane season comes to an end. Seagliders are autonomous underwater vehicles used for oceanographic research, and they are often deployed to collect data on various ocean parameters. Recovering sea Gliders is an important part of their operation, as it allows for data retrieval, maintenance, and reprogramming if necessary. This data can be crucial for understanding ocean conditions, which is particularly relevant during and after hurricane season to monitor any changes or impacts on the marine environment.
  • Buoys & Moorings
    • New buoys installed along Florida coast: SECOORA funded the installation of three buoys off the East Coast of Florida by Florida Atlantic University (FAU) Harbor Branch and in partnership with the Coastal Ocean Research and Monitoring Program (CORMP) at University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW) - one wave buoy and one met buoy in Ponce de Leon Inlet and one met buoy in Fort Pierce Inlet.
    • New Quinault Indian Nation Wave Buoy Deployed: On 6 October 2023, the Quinault Indian Nation (QIN) deployed a wave buoy off Point Grenville, WA, as a test through the Backyard Buoys project. Conditions were generally calm with 4-5 foot swell, as Joe Schumacker, QIN Marine Resources Scientist, Liesl Danyluk, APL-UW Field Engineer, and two QIN fishermen deployed a Sofar Spotter buoy over the side of a Quinault Indian Nation crabbing vessel, the F/V Seeker. This site was chosen by the QIN to provide wave information for tribal and non-tribal vessels using the remote area, and for Quinault tribal members using small boats and canoes to check surf conditions off the reservation when deciding to use the coastal waters for recreational, subsistence, and commercial uses.  More info on NANOOS’ website.
    • Quileute Tribe Wave Buoy Withstands High Seas: The Quileute Tribe’s wave buoy test deployment, off La Push, WA, withstood over 23-foot seas during a powerful cyclone that hit the PNW coast 25-26 September 2023. The buoy’s anchor did drag about 200 yards to the north, but performed remarkably given the conditions. This is one of the key reasons that the Backyard Buoys project is conducting test deployments with the partner Indigenous communities, so that the mooring configuration can be evaluated and revised to withstand the full range of conditions while reliably delivering data to the people who need it. See a screenshot of the data on the NANOOS website.
    • Tanapag and Palau Wave Buoys Redeployed: The Tanapag Wave Buoy was redeployed on October 5. Moored approximately 5 miles off the west coast of Saipan, CNMI, this buoy measures both wave direction and wave energy. The buoy was redeployed in time to record data from Typhoon Bolaven passing between Rota and Tinian as a category 1 typhoon. Wave height logged by the buoy for October 11, ChST shows a peak wave height of 16.21 feet! The Palau Wave Buoy was redeployed on October 17. This buoy was initially deployed in June 2022 as part of an international collaboration led by the Palau National Weather Service Office (NWSO), with PacIOOS as a technical partner. The buoy measures both wave direction and energy, as well as sea surface currents, air and sea surface temperatures. 
  • Harmful Algal Blooms 
    • Daily Real-Time Observations Help Improve Domoic Acid Forecasts: Learn how a team led by John Mickett (UW) and Stephanie Moore (NOAA) are getting real-time data on the phytoplankton toxin, domoic acid, that disrupts shellfish harvest and threatens marine mammal and human health. Participation by tribes, industry, academia, and federal partners has honed its success to making a difference to preparedness through NCOOS and IOOS funding working within NANOOS to disseminate the information.  https://coastalscience.noaa.gov/news/real-time-obs-improve-domoic-acid-forecasts/
