Ocean Enterprise Study 2015: Functions 81 % of the companies we surveyed were providers 36% were Intermediaries 14

Data Mgmt: DMAC – Environmental Sensors & Models v 2 week cache of ALL known, available real-time observations v AOOS & Axiom v Release June 2016 v THREDDS, WMS access to all model output v ASA for Coast Guard / IOOS v Pre Release now 15

Innovation & DMAC – Keep on Advancing ioos. us Project Outcomes: • Single landing page/entry point for DMAC access. • Full Capacity in June • New Glider DAC 16 New/Updated Manuals 2015 Dissolved Nutrients Observations Ocean Optics Data In-situ Temp. and Salinity Data In-Situ Current Observations In-Situ Surface Wave Data Dissolved Oxygen Observations New/Updated Manuals - 2016 Glider HFR Currents Water Level

HF Radar FY 16 Outlook Refinement of O&M costs At your local WFO Significant Wave Height Tsunami detection – partner with NWS • Global HF Radar – GEO/GOOS • Archiving continues every month • QARTOD manual underway • • 17

Modeling Outlook FY 16 • COMT: Transition plans developed for each project (Q 4) • Coordinated development between EDS, ioos. us and COMT model viewer • Ches. Bay Hypoxia Transition funded in FY 17 President’s Budget Request • IOOS Modeling Inventory updated (~Q 3) • COMT Success stories available 18

Animal Telemetry Network (ATN) FY 16 Outlook ATN Vision: will provide integrated data on aquatic ecosystems from species to environment. This network will complement existing ocean observing assets and will inform ecosystem-based management, fisheries and biodiversity, marine spatial planning, ocean modeling and forecasting, and National Ocean Policy priority objectives. http: //oceanview. pfeg. noaa. gov/ATN/ FY 16 focus: Data Assembly Center Governance (NC & SG) Input: Regional engagement Communications/outreach planning 5

U. S. Marine Biodiversity Observation Network Interagency support: • $15 M from NASA, NOAA (IOOS and OER), and BOEM – FY 14 -18 • In-kind from USGS on DMAC, ecological mapping units • Marine. GEO/Tennenbaum is an MBON partner MBON teams are working together to: • Increase efficiencies and fill gaps in biodiversity monitoring • Integrate biological and environmental observations • Integrate remote sensing with in situ • Develop methods for automated sampling of marine biodiversity • Lead global development of marine biodiversity indicators and variables • Develop a U. S. MBON • Advance global MBON Credit: MBARI
