  1. New uses for data products & coordinated networks of observations: OCEANS Jeremy Werdell 4 Oct 2011 NASA Joint Science Workshop PJW, NASA SSAI, 4 Oct 2011, CCE JSW

  2. Contributors • Steve Ackleson (Consortium for Ocean Leadership) • Barney Balch (Bigelow) • Watson Gregg (NASA) • StephaneMaritorena (UCSB) • Mary Jane Perry (UMaine) • David Siegel (UCSB) some additional authors cited: S Alvain, C. Anderson, M. Behrenfeld, S. Doney,Duforet-Gaurier, C. Fichot, A. Gnanadesikan, T. Kostadinov, A. Mannino, D. McGillicuddy, W. Miller, J. Polovina, W. Shi, I. Soto, C. Wilson, J. Yoder PJW, NASA SSAI, 4 Oct 2011, CCE JSW

  3. Overview • data talks 1 & 2 reviewed existing data products, “climate data records,” & plans for the future • data talk 3 will advertise cutting edge data products from existing sensors & assimilation of multiple products 2. merger with in situ data existing satellite time-series continue to provide an opportunity to further our understanding of the global biosphere 1. new data products 3. modeling efforts PJW, NASA SSAI, 4 Oct 2011, CCE JSW

  5. frequency of appearance of words in JSW abstracts http://www.wordle.net PJW, NASA SSAI, 4 Oct 2011, CCE JSW

  6. ocean products under development Stephane particulate organic carbon dissolved organic carbon slope of the particle size distribution phytoplankton community structure Duforêt-Gaurier et al., 2010 µmol C L-1 Mannino et al., 2008 Alvain et al., 2005, 2008 Kostadinov et al., 2009

  7. ocean products under development the source are coccolithophores NASA’s MODIS and SeaWiFS missions have documented (and ships have now validated) the “Great Calcite Belt” a region of enhanced reflectance that covers ~1/4 of Earth’s ocean 1 mm Balch, Bigelow Laboratory MODIS Aqua; Dec 2010 to March 2011

  8. ties to in situ measurements Mary Jane & Steve support for satellite time-series & support for in situ studies See North Atlantic Bloom (NAB) 2008 courtesy of Eric D’Asaro, Craig Lee, and Mary Jane Perry see also Briggs et al. 2011, Deep Sea Research I courtesy of Steven Ackleson PJW, NASA SSAI, 4 Oct 2011, CCE JSW

  9. data assimilation & modeling Watson 1 mg m-3 data assimilation: * improves a model by forcing agreement with data & reducing model biases * improves the data by filling in missing data & reducing sampling biases comparison with in situ data: bias uncertainty free-run model -1.4% 61.8% assimilation 0.1% 33.4% Gregg, 2008, Journal of Marine Systems PJW, NASA SSAI, 4 Oct 2011, CCE JSW
