Global Synthesis and Observations Panel (GSOP) Major future plans/activities(1) • GSOP Workshop Ocean Synthesis and Air-Sea flux evaluation WHOI, 27 -30 Nov 2012 (50 -60 participants) – Sponsorship now from WCRP, USCLIVAR, NASA, NOAA (This was time consuming!!) – Air-sea flux methods and products evaluation with emphasis on modeling applications and synthesis flux products – Observation and Model based Syntheses => Global Consistency – Wider synthesis comparison reports from “Analysis Centres” • GSOP 6 th panel WHOI 30 Nov- 1 Dec 2012 • GODAE Ocean. View–GSOP Workshop: Observing System Evaluation and Coupled Data Assimilation 15 -19 Apr 2013 Hobart – – Funding already secure ocean observing system: time and spatial scales; assimilation methods (for state estimation and prediction); coupled modelling and data assimilation (all earth system components and their interactions); – observing system evaluation (impact on prediction systems? Gaps? Oversampling? etc. ) – validation of analysis and forecast systems (quantifying observation value)
Global Synthesis and Observations Panel (GSOP) Major future plans/activities(2) • GSOP Workshop Ocean Sub-Surface Climate Data OS-SCD, Apr-Jun 2013 (20 -30 participants) – develop a high-quality historical ocean subsurface global data set for climate research needs, including synthesis – Develop agreed semi-automated QC – Community program for future CLIVAR endorsement followed by requests for national support – Support from 5 Data Centers as well as synthesis groups – Application domains would include: • • • more accurate (XBT/MBT) bias corrections; performance metrics to evaluate climate models; key indicators for global/regional climate variability and change; synthesis efforts; ocean model initializations; multi-disciplinary (observational and modelling) climate research, including detection and attribution studies. – Some CSIRO funding available but WCRP support also needed? ?
Ocean Sub-Surface Climate Data Workshop Plan for Coordinated semi-automated screening of 9 million historical T profiles Benefits: • more than 95% bad data removed • • • nearly all duplicates removed no loss of good data only ~40% manual screening integrated metadata traceability errors measurements Major data centres involved: • US NODC/NOAA (Levitus, Boyer et al. ) • • Japan MRI (Ishii et al. ) Germany Klima. Campus (Stammer, Gouretski) UK Met. Office (Good, Palmer) Australia ACE-CRC/CSIRO (Domingues, Gronell, Cowley, Wijffels, Bindoff) Project aim: To deliver a historical global database of subsurface ocean temperature (salinity) that will meet the more demanding 21 st century requirements of quality, consistency and reduced uncertainties of an escalating number of climate science underpinning decision and policy-making assessments. We need support for ONE-OFF WORKSHOP to discuss/agree in person the scope/details of the project proposal and therefore to facilitate the preparation of a scientific/implementation plan (to be submitted for CLIVAR endorsement).
Global Synthesis and Observations Panel (GSOP) Issues and Challenges for Discussion • Develop GSOP relationships with Data and Modeling Councils – Synthesis NEEDS advocacy from both Councils, danger it may fall between? – How best to interact with WDAC? • Develop CLIVAR Science applications community for Synthesis products – Get wider expertise involved in evaluating products, eg. Decadal Prediction, Air-Sea fluxes, … – Regional interests eg. Arctic, Nesting applications, Transport applications, eg. carbon, biogeochemistry – Synthesis/Assimilation applications to model improvement? GSOP-WGOMD – Need to increase accessibility and applicability of products- Large datasets, Standardized formats, Browsability…. – ICPO web presence? • Resources for comparisons work – European COST proposal unsuccessful (currently being re-proposed) – EU GMES My. Ocean 2 plans – Involvement with GODAE-Oceanview community has been very successful so far as they have directable human resources –

Argo and CLIVAR Since 1998, 1080 research papers have used Argo data, including 300 in JGR, GRL, and JPO. http: //www. argo. ucsd. edu/Bibliography. html Argo contributes to a broad range of climate-related basic research, including global change, in addition to operational and education applications. 1080 Argo papers As of 20 April 2012 Recent analyses of global ocean heat content include improved estimates for the recent half century (Levitus et al. , GRL, 2012), and estimated warming for the 135 -year interval between the Challenger Expedition and Argo (Roemmich et al. , Nature Climate Change, 2012).

New Revised GSOP To. R • The CLIVAR Global Synthesis and Observations panel is established to: • 1. Develop, promote and seek to implement strategies for the synthesis of global ocean, atmosphere and coupled climate information. Methods will include observation-based syntheses and model-based syntheses e. g. Reanalyses. • 2. Define CLIVAR's requirement for globally sustained observations and promote the use of resulting data sets in global synthesis efforts. Provide strategic advice and supporting evidence in collaboration with WMO and IOC bodies, to help sustain, evolve and optimise the global ocean observing system based on new science and reanalysis insights. • 3. Develop metrics to evaluate ocean and coupled syntheses, to promote the utility of synthesis products for climate applications, including initialisation of coupled forecasts, detection/attribution of climate change and variability, and determining the oceans role in the global heat, water and biogeochemical cycles. • 4. Provide strategic advice and direction to CLIVAR/WCRP data management and processing activities within the Framework for Ocean Observing, related to production of climate quality global ocean synthesis products. • 5. Liaise and collaborate with WCRP Councils, Panels and Working Groups in identifying the requirements for, and coordinating the development of, a sustainable Earth system monitoring and prediction system. • 6. The Panel will report to the CLIVAR SSG.
