The Workshop requested abstracts that
addressed the following themes:
Technological Demands and Developments
– demands for enhanced observations collection technology; innovations
or developments in related marine observation systems; developments in
buoys/instruments (e.g. wave measurements). These aspects will be
addressed in Session 1.
Operational Practices and Enhancements
– evaluation or analysis of operational performance or trials; data
communications and data assimilation; performance and efficiency
benchmarking; new systems and practices. These aspects will be addressed
in Session 2.
Applications of Collected Data –
research and operational data applications; case studies. These aspects
will be addressed in Session 3.
Special Focus. In addition to
the regular themes, this year’s workshop will have a major focus on
"Extended marine observing technologies and
coastal risk management."
Topics of interest are:
-
Integration of in situ and
satellite ocean observing systems (e.g. High Resolution Sea Surface
Temperatures). These aspects will be
addressed in Session 4.
-
Observing practices, including
traceability to standards and instrument inter-comparisons.
These aspects will be addressed in Session 5.
-
Polar observations and their applications. Unfortunately we have not
received relevant presentations in this regard. These aspects will
be addressed during the main DBCP Session under agenda item 7.
-
Collection of instrument/platform
metadata from data buoys. These aspects
will be addressed in Session 5.
