From the Director:

Hello IOOS Community,

I’d like to draw your attention to calls for papers for two special editions of the Marine Technology Society Journal. The May/April 2018 issue will showcase US IOOS and coastal resilience. The May/June 2018 issue will be in tribute to Vembu Subramanian, who passed away earlier this year, and focus on lessons learned from ocean observing systems. Full information on both issues including how to submit a paper can be found in the Communications/Outreach/Education section below. I would love to see support for these two special issues from the whole IOOS community and whole heartedly encourage folks to submit a paper.

Best Regards,

Carl

Observation Subsystem and Sensor Technologies:

• Observing Systems and Hurricane Irma: One of many success stories coming out of the major hurricanes that have impacted the US this Fall include observing systems being in the water. SECOORA PI Catherine Edwards from SkIO had a glider deployed during Irma. When she knew her university’s power would go down, she tried to implement her backup plan using Chad Lembke at USF.  However, they were also in the path of Irma. With almost no notice, she was able to “evacuate” dockserver operations to TAMU a couple days before the storm hit. GCOOS PI Steve DiMarco ensured they had the tools needed to fly their glider through the storm. They learned some lessons but most importantly maintained operations through the hurricane.

• HF Radar/Radio: (IOOS national coordinator, Jack Harlan; Jack.Harlan@noaa.gov):
  
  • SCCOOS-CeNCOOS Joint Science Advisory Committee Meeting and UCSB Visit: Jack Harlan, IOOS PO attended the annual JSAC meeting on October 4th. The meeting gathered stakeholders from both California IOOS regional associations and focused on topics oncluding HF Radar, Water Quality, and Climate/OAH. Jack also had a chance to  visit the UCSB HFR group.

• • Significant Wave Height (SWH) Project: CODAR has rolled out the software update to the operators. Assessment continues this month until data begins being collected. The 3 WFOs are on board for using the NWS graduate student program to provide some assistance on the SWH project.

• • GEO/GOOS/JCOMM Global HFR/Mexico/Canada: JCOMM/OCG has requested that a Network Specification Sheet update occur by 16 Oct.  The GEO HFR steering committee made modifications and also held a quarterly telecon on 11 Oct.  The group will organize into 3 regions conforming to the Int’l Telecommunications Union regions.  Simone Cosoli will talk with Korea, Thailand and Taiwan to see if anyone wants to become part of the Steering Committee. In addition, an abstract to the Blue Planet special issue on Ocean Observing for Societal Benefit was submitted by Scripps withjack Harlan as a co-author. http://geoblueplanet.com/2017/08/04/supplemental-issue-ocean-observing-societal-benefit/

• • SECOORA, GCOOS & CARICOOS HF Radars and Hurricane Damage: The IOOS PO continues to support NOAA updates on Hurricanes Maria, Harvey & Irma regarding radar assets. We Continue to communicate and coordinate with SECOORA, GCOOS and CARICOOS HFR folks regarding damage assessment. Puerto Rico’s situation has, so far, precluded damage assessment although at least 4 of the 5 radars were removed prior to Maria. Hurricane Nate passed within 20 miles of the Singing River, MS CODAR.  Although the electronics at Singing River and 3 other sites were removed prior to the storm, there has been no damage assessment yet for the antennas or infrastructure at those 4 USM sites.  The fifth CODAR, in the Florida panhandle, remained operating through the storm and is still operating normally.

• Gliders:
  • No update.

• ATN (National Coordinator Bill Woodward, Bill.Woodward@noaa.gov):

  • Live Whale Tracks on ATN DAC: Live tracks from Robin Baird’s (Cascadia Research Collective) 5 Cuviers Beaked Whales and 1 Pilot Whale, plus 2 Melon-Headed Whales from earlier this year are now being displayed on the ATN DAC site:   oceanview.pfeg.noaa.gov/ATN/

• • Shark Tracks on ATN DAC:  Tracks from Kim Holland’s (U. of Hawaii) 5 tigers sharks from 2017 around the Hawaiian Islands are now being displayed on the ATN DAC site.

• • ATN and Science on a Sphere: The ATN has connected with Stephen Zepecki the NOAA Educational Outreach Coordinator for NOAA’s “Science on a Sphere” (SOS) for initial discussions on displaying marine animal telemetry tracks on the SOS.  This will be a terrific outreach activity for the ATN. We’re now working on the technical steps to format and make the data accessible.

Data Management and Communications (DMAC) Subsystem and Tools Built on IOOS data (DMAC listserv – contact Derrick Snowden, Derrick.Snowden@noaa.gov)

• IOOS DMAC Team Assists with Canadian IOOS Development: Members of the Operations Division DMAC team, Micah, Kathy, Tiffany, and Becky, along with Jessica of RB&P, met with Brad Covey and Shayla Fitzsimmons of Dalhousie University to offer guidance from the perspective of IOOS’ DMAC implementation in their effort to draft a preliminary plan for development of a comparable DMAC system for the Canadian IOOS, or CIOOS.  The two groups met for about three hours and discussed all aspects of IOOS’ DMAC system, as well as more general governance and international engagement topics.

• MBON at Essential Marine Biological Data Products Workshop: Gabrielle Canonico, IOOS PO spoke about IOOS Biology and MBON at the Essential Marine Biological Data Products Workshop, October 10 in London. The workshop intended to inform the development of core data products from EMODnet Biology to support management, policy, planning and education. Organized by EMODnet Biology, the workshop brought together key partners from the Regional Sea coordination bodies, ICES, transatlantic collaborative projects, MBON, OBIS and GOOS BioEco, and relevant EU Research Infrastructures along with industry and others, to ensure the data product and service outputs of EMODnet Biology are targeted and appropriate to the challenges of managing the marine environment, and can be integrated and used to help address the relevant UNSustainable Development Goals, among other things.  

• The Deep Ocean Observing Strategy: Developing a Network for Sustained Physical, Chemical, and Biological Observation in the Deep Sea: Over the past few years, Deep Ocean Observing Strategy (DOOS), in close cooperation with Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS), has been galvanizing experts to develop a strategy for sustained, global deep ocean observations. DOOS considers essential ocean variables (EOVs), key geographic regions, readiness for implementation, and emerging technologies that will provide a blueprint for deep-sea observing over the coming decades. DOOS leadership hosted an exploratory workshop at Scripps Institution of Oceanography in December 2016 to develop a coordinated plan and to outline steps required to turn the deep ocean observing strategy into a global observing network. Workshop delegates outlined the following objectives for DOOS over the next decade:
  • Build an understanding of what is most important to observe
  • Provide a hub for integration opportunities
  • Coordinate observations to improve efficiency, standards, and best practices
  • Develop deep observing requirements
  • Build readiness in observing technology and techniques
  • Foster availability, discoverability, and usability of deep ocean data
  • Create a community science implementation plan

Two weeks ago, the newly inducted DOOS Steering Committee (SC) gathered in Washington, D.C. to debrief on the progress made by DOOS since their workshop in December 2016 and to guide efforts designed to support the objectives above. The SC discussed their targets for the next two years, the strategy to incorporate deep sea EOVs into the current GOOS EOVs, concept pilot projects, Science and Implementation Guide development, capacity building, and scientific community outreach.

• Call for Papers - Marine Technology Society Journal May/June 2018 Special Issue: Lessons Learned From Ocean Observing Systems, Volume II: A Tribute to Vembu Subramanian: This special issue of the MTS Journal is designed to be a forum for users and operators of ocean observing systems to share what they have learned in a broader context than would be covered by papers in a science journal. We are particularly looking for examples of “best practices” that have been developed to overcome obstacles resulting in systemic practices that the wider ocean observing community can adopt. Descriptions of data quality assurance and instrument upkeep and performance are valuable discussion topics. From the users’ perspective, we are looking for examples where ocean observing data has solved problems in the broader community; i.e., the ocean observing system is generating a return on society’s investment. We will consider a broad interpretation of this rubric, inclusive of outreach and education. This issue is dedicated in honor of Vembu Subramanian, who passed away in early 2017. Vembu was Deputy Director, RCOOS and DMAC Operations of SECOORA, and Chair of the MTS Ocean Observing Systems Committee, as well as an avid MTS member. The issue’s release comes at the 2-year anniversary of the MTSJ special issue, Data Impacts and Lessons Learned from Ocean Observing Systems Worldwide, Volume I, for which Subramanian was lead Guest Editor. Manuscript submission deadline December 20, 2017. More information here.

• GCOOS at St. Petersburg (Florida) Science Festival: The annual event includes a student day on Friday, Oct. 20, and a public day on Saturday, Oct. 21. On student day, GCOOS will use coral reefs to introduce students to one method scientists use to measure the health of ecosystems. Students will learn about biodiversity and how measuring biodiversity can be an indicator of ecosystem health. The activity is based on a lesson developed by GCOOS educators and available for free on our website. They will also use the coral reef assessment during the public day on Saturday and adding it to a catch/release fishing activity designed to focus on the "M" (mathematics) in STEM education.
