From the Director:

Dear IOOS Community,

Welcome to May! Last week I attended the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS) Steering Committee meeting in Halifax, Nova Scotia, as the chair of the GOOS Regional Council. I reported on GOOS Regional Alliance (U.S. IOOS is one of the GRAs) accomplishments, challenges, and opportunities and participated in discussions on the work to advance GOOS Strategic Objectives in support of the implementation of the GOOS Strategy 2030. 

On April 17th, the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS), Marine Technology Society (MTS), and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and industry partners published a synthesis of key findings and recommendations from the series of four ‘Dialogues with Industry’. The dialogue series aimed to dismantle existing barriers and highlight opportunities for achieving a mature next-generation global ocean observing system to meet the needs of the blue economy. With participants and observers from over 40 countries and especially high industry participation, it provided a one-of-a-kind space for discussions around novel ideas in ocean observing. Read the report here: https://www.mtsociety.org/mts-goos-industry-dialogues

This week marks Hurricane Preparedness week (April 30-May 6th). Be ready for hurricane season. Take action TODAY to be better prepared for when the worst happens. Understand your risk from hurricanes, and begin pre-season preparations now. Make sure you understand how to interpret forecasts and alerts, and know what to do before, during, and after a storm. If you live in hurricane-prone areas, you are encouraged to prepare before hurricane season begins on June 1.

Thanks,
Carl

  • Surface Current Mapping
    • New SeaSonde HF Radar in Massachusetts: Congratulations to Dr. Anthony Kirincich’s team at WHOI on their installation of a single antenna long-range CODAR SeaSonde® HF Radar at Salisbury Beach State Reservation in Massachusetts!  This new station expands the NERACOOS oceanographic HF-radar network and has been added to the IOOS Surface Currents Program HFR National Network (ID #SBSR).  The WHOI team expects to begin installation on the first site of the Central Maine HFR array, which will combine with this SBSR site, in early May 2023.
    • First HF-radars Installed on the North Coast of Puerto Rico for Measuring Surface Currents and Waves:  The CARICOOS HF-radar network has been expanded with the addition of two new mid-range CODAR SeaSonde® HF-radar systems located in Toa Baja and Fajardo in a continued effort to provide for U.S. Coast Guard and maritime sector information needs, to reduce maritime hazards/risks and support rapid response operations (search-and-rescue, hazardous spills).  Near real-time surface current information will be provided in 2 km and 6 km resolution products covering the high-traffic sea lane between Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.  These data will augment decision-support tools to enhance the safety and efficiency of the full range of maritime operations taking place in the region.
    • Seeking Applicants for CIMAS Position: We are seeking applicants for a CIMAS position to work on-site at NOAA's NCEP/Environmental Modeling Center in College Park, MD, examining ocean observations and their impacts on ocean models in support of a NOAA hurricane intensity forecast improvements project.  This would be a 2-year term.  There are 2 application avenues - one for PhDs and another for Master's-level candidates. Candidates must be a U.S. Citizen or green card holder to access the NWS systems.
  • Gliders 
  • Buoys & Moorings
    • A Birthday for GAKOA: Ten years of monitoring in the Gulf of Alaska: Alaska’s longest continual ocean acidification mooring just turned ten years old. In lieu of a birthday cake, AOOS partners at the University of Alaska brought the mooring back to shore for its annual maintenance and got it right back out in the water. Read more about GAKOA here.
    • Hanalei and Waimea Wave Buoys Redeployed: The Hanalei Wave Buoy was redeployed on April 1, 2023. Moored approximately four miles offshore Hāʻena Point, Kauaʻi, this buoy measures wave energy and height, as well as sea surface temperature. The Waimea Wave Buoy moored approximately four miles off Waimea Bay, Oʻahu was redeployed on April 26. This buoy measures wave direction and wave energy. Both buoys transmit data every half hour. Long-term partnerships between PacIOOS, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), and the Coastal Data Information Program (CDIP) enable data streaming into the PacIOOS website and PacIOOS Voyager.
  • Harmful Algal Blooms 
    • Reeling About Red Tide? Check Out These Reels: GCOOS recently worked with an interdisciplinary international team to create Instagram Reels (short videos) to promote the Red Tide Respiratory Forecast and explain how and why the forecast is produced. The Forecast predicts red tide conditions on individual beaches at three hour increments throughout the day during red tide blooms.  Check them out on GCOOS’ new Instagram page!
    • Harmful Algal Bloom Early Warning System Guidance: A team of international researchers and managers, including NCCOS scientists, published the “Joint FAO-IOC-IAEA Technical Guidance for the Implementation of Early Warning Systems for Harmful Algal Blooms” to help improve harmful algal bloom monitoring and forecasting around the globe. The document will guide authorities and institutions involved in consumer protection or environmental monitoring to implement or improve early warning systems for harmful algal blooms that can contaminate seafood and threaten public health. There is growing concern that harmful algal bloom events will become more frequent as ocean temperatures rise and nutrient inputs increase. Many countries have developed surveillance systems to monitor harmful algal blooms; however, they may not be sufficient to ensure seafood safety. Early warning systems can address this issue and help reduce the impact of harmful algal blooms. The report describes several harmful algal bloom early warning systems around the world, including NOAA’s many ecological forecasting products.

Around the Regions:

  • New report on The U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System: A Prototype User Valuation: The IOOS Association supported a 2019-2021 prototype study by the Center for the Blue Economy of the Middlebury Institute of International Studies to better understand the value of the data and information provided by the IOOS Regional Association through their websites to their users. The study concluded that the value of the IOOS regional observing system, just to initial users, lies between $192 million and $233 million per year, which can be considered both a conservative and incomplete estimate because the study did not include two of the 11 IOOS Regional Associations and did not consider the likely much larger values resulting from end uses of the array of information products and services that rely on observing data provided by the IOOS regional observing system. The full report is available at the IOOS Association website or the Center for the Blue Economy’s Digital Commons.
  • Alaska Regional Ocean Partnerships: The newly formed Regional Ocean Partnerships Steering Committee held its first meeting on March 22. The SC is composed of members from UAF/ACCAP, NOAA OCM, NOAA AFSC, SOA DNR, Native Village of Kotzebue, BOEM, Wildlife Conservation Society, and Ikaagun Engagement. As this was the first meeting of the SC, there were discussions on the terms of reference, working procedures, and roles and duties of the SC. The SC also discussed the overall direction of the ROP funding. We look forward to continuing the discussions and moving forward with this program with the help of our Steering Committee!

Read the report here: https://www.mtsociety.org/mts-goos-industry-dialogues 
  • Global Ocean Observing For Earth Day: In honor of Earth Day, the Global Ocean Monitoring and Observation Program published an article on NOAA’s contributions to the global ocean observing system. For decades, scientists have been working together across international boundaries to study our global ocean and develop a global ocean observing system. This system is made up of a variety of instruments that collect ocean data and all the people who contribute their ideas, research and passion for ocean science to improve our world. NOAA’s Global Ocean Monitoring and Observing Program supports half the world’s ocean observing research by investing in programs such as Argo, the Global Drifter Program, the Global Tropical Moored Buoy Array, and a variety of data products, such as the Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas, that show us how the ocean is changing over time. Hear more about the evolution and future vision of the global ocean observing system from some of our partners in Germany, India, Indonesia, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States in our video, Evolution of the Global Ocean Observing System. 
  • NOAA Releases Citizen Science Action Plan: Along with the NOAA Citizen Science Strategy, the Action Plan provides a roadmap for NOAA to advance public participation in our research and monitoring efforts, and creates opportunities for Americans to contribute to our efforts to build a Climate-Ready Nation, strengthen the New Blue Economy, and incorporate diverse perspectives in science. By implementing this Action Plan, we also ensure collaboration, inclusiveness, and data quality are core considerations of the projects we offer. 
  • First-ever U.S. Ocean Climate Action Plan Underscores Urgency of Protecting Ocean, Coasts, Great Lakes: America’s new Ocean Climate Action Plan recognizes there is no path to a healthy and livable climate without a healthy ocean. Many NOAA staff played pivotal roles in developing the plan, which outlines new actions to equitably support healthy communities, ensure a sustainable ocean economy, and harness the ocean’s potential to advance solutions to the climate crisis. As a comprehensive roadmap to ocean health, the plan catalyzes actions by the federal government and public and taps the power of science, technology and innovation. It presents “science as possibility,” underscoring the urgency of seizing the opportunities that climate change presents to protect our waters, with numerous complementary benefits.
  • NOAA Expedition to Explore Deep Ocean off U.S. West Coast: During the 2023 Shakedown + EXPRESS West Coast Exploration expedition, scientists will work to expand our knowledge of the geology and biology in the deepwater backyard Oregon and Washington, collecting data to support decision-making about sensitive marine life and habitats, geological features, and potential resources. Follow along here as they use a remotely operated vehicle to dive from NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer and explore deep-sea coral and sponge habitats, potential hydrothermal vent systems, fracture and rift zones, and the diverse life in the ocean’s water column from surface to seafloor.
  • Updated Relative Sea Level Trends Available: CO-OPS released the 2022 U.S. relative sea level trend update. CO-OPS calculates trends for 135 long-term water level stations in operation since 1960. Updated trends add to NOAA’s understanding of regional changes in sea level rise and are critical for coastal resiliency planning. This year, many stations observed only minor trend changes. The third consecutive La Niña, primarily affecting the tropical Pacific, caused increases in sea level rise trends in Guam due to prevailing easterly winds. The Eastern Gulf of Mexico coastline from the Florida Keys to Mobile Bay showed the largest overall trend increases with the addition of 2022 observations. Within this region, observed increases were greater than +0.1 millimeter/year. The vast majority of long-term trends along U.S. coasts point to persistent, long-term sea level rise.
  • CO-OPS Adds New Stations to Cape Cod/Buzzards Bay System: CO-OPS is preparing to disseminate data for two new Physical Oceanographic Real-Time System stations at New Bedford Harbor, Massachusetts. The stations, one tide gauge and one meteorological station measuring wind, air temperature, and air pressure, are being integrated into NOAA’s existing Cape Cod/Buzzards Bay Physical Oceanographic Real-Time System and will provide data to support decision-making for vessel traffic transiting Buzzards Bay and into New Bedford Harbor. This data will enhance inundation monitoring during coastal flooding, improve understanding of precise vessel drafts for cargo loading and unloading, and will be particularly valuable for mariners navigating channels. The Physical Oceanographic Real-Time System is a successful public-private partnership that provides an integrated system of sensors concentrated in seaports, which supplies commercial vessel operators with reliable real-time information about environmental conditions. New Bedford’s stations are a result of a partnership between CO-OPS and the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center.
  • OCS Hosts NOAA Custom Chart Version 2.0 Webinar: The Office of Coast Survey (OCS) hosted a webinar to walk users through the new NOAA Custom Chart version 2.0, a web-based application that generates a customized paper nautical chart. The custom charts are created from the latest official NOAA electronic navigational chart (NOAA ENC®) data. The application allows users to create a geospatially referenced PDF file, which then may be printed and used to augment navigation using actual NOAA ENCs. OCS is excited to share NOAA Custom Chart version 2.0 with the public!
  • OCS and Collaborators Improve Crowdsourced Bathymetry: OCS and NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information, the International Hydrographic Organization, and Aqua Map, a popular mobile marine navigation app, collaborated to allow the submission of depth data in real time from nontraditional sources to the International Hydrographic Organization Data Centre for Digital Bathymetry. The collaboration will likely vastly increase the number of active crowdsourced bathymetry contributors and will improve the accuracy and timeliness of nautical chart updates. OCS began the collaboration when they updated multiple Intracoastal Waterway charts using information from Aqua Map and its 18,000 boating enthusiasts, which spurred a discussion with Aqua Map about crowdsourced bathymetry. OCS is committed to improving navigation data for the benefit of all boaters, and this is an exciting step toward catalyzing awareness and contributions of crowdsourced bathymetry. Crowdsourcing fills data gaps and contributes to the global goal of mapping the seafloor by 2030.
  • NGS Supports Tidal and Water Level Datums Workshop: On April 5 and 6, a number of NGS employees participated in a workshop co-hosted by the Center for Operational Oceanographic Products & Services (CO-OPS), the Canadian Hydrographic Service (CHS), and the Coordinating Committee on Great Lakes Basic Hydraulic and Hydrologic Data. Regional Geodetic Advisors Denis Riordan, Ed Carlson, and Dan Martin discussed using datums and historic relationships with older reference systems. Stephen White provided updates on VDatum, and Great Lakes Regional Advisor Jacob Heck co-presented an overview of the International Great Lakes Datum and its update. Galen Scott, Jeff Jalbrzikowski and Christine Gallagher also assisted in moderating the event which attracted more than 300 attendees from around North America.
