Ocean Watch
Our current focus is on bringing together leading experts to evaluate the technology and systems to fill the current scientific data deficit in order to improve models and our understanding of the ocean. We emphasize the importance of cross-sector collaboration to establish and sustain a long-term global data effort. This effort will help fill observational gaps and create an integrated, accessible database for researchers, decision-makers, and the public.
Teaming up to map the ocean like we do space
Our vision is to advance understanding of ocean dynamics and their critical role in Earth's climate system. We seek to accelerate innovation in sensing technologies and modeling by fostering collaboration across disciplines. Recognizing the scientific and operational challenges, we emphasize the urgent need for integrated, high-resolution data to fill persistent observational gaps. Our approach embraces bold experimentation and strategic partnerships to observe the inner ocean with the ambition and coordination historically reserved for space exploration.
