The Biogeochemical-Argo program aims to develop a global network of 1000 Argo profiling floats with oxygen, nitrate, pH, and bio-optical sensors. The BGC-Argo array will operate as one component of the One Argo array, including Core-Argo and Deep-Argo. Contributions of floats with biogeochemical sensors have come from over 20 nations. The BGC-Argo array will address key questions such as: What is the ocean's role in regulating the carbon cycle? What are the drivers of open ocean deoxygenation? How do physical changes in mixing and circulation affect nutrient availability and productivity? Is the timing and location of phytoplankton blooms changing?

GO-BGC will start hosting quarterly webinars about emerging science using GO-BGC or BGC-Argo float data, focusing on early career researchers. The webinar series is hosted by the US Ocean Carbon and Biogeochemistry program. The kickoff webinar will be focused on updating the status of GO-BGC and BGC-Argo, projected float deployment locations over the next year, followed by community Q&A.

Please join us for the quarterly GO-BGC webinar, hosted by the US Ocean Carbon and Biogeochemistry program. This webinar will be focused on investigations of phytoplankton phenology and variability at regional to global scales using a range of chemical and bio-optical sensors on the BGC-Argo floats. We will hear 3 short presentations about exciting new work in this area, followed by a community discussion about best practices, challenges, and future perspectives of using BGC-Argo data to advance our understanding of ecological dynamics and the footprint of progressive climate change on the ocean. Recordings will be available on the OCB and GO-BGC website.

The 2022 EARTH workshop will be held July 25-29, 2022 in Seattle, WA, co-hosted by MBARI and GO-BGC. During the workshop, educators work with active researchers to explore current science and/or engineering research, data, and conclusions and develop their own curricula using the knowledge from these explorations and their own experiences to create classroom lessons.

The world's ocean is in a constant state of change from natural variability and increasingly from human-induced activities. Understanding the ocean by means of in situ observations is thus more critical than ever before. The 7th Argo Science Workshop aims to bring together ocean science research that has employed Argo data and products to further improve our knowledge of the changing oceans and highlight the applications that the new OneArgo array is opening.

The Argo Data Management Team meeting is a time for data managers who contribute to international Argo to come together and discuss technical matters pertaining to the Argo data stream.  The first two days will cover BGC Argo Data Management topics and the last three days will be the plenary sessions for the ADMT.

The 2023 NOAA Ocean Acidification Program's Community Meeting will be January 4-6, 2023 at the Scripps Seaside Forum in La Jolla, CA.

Please join us for the quarterly GO-BGC webinar, hosted by the US Ocean Carbon and Biogeochemistry Project Office. This webinar will be focused on using BGC-Argo float data to investigate chemical and biological processes in the ocean that are influenced by eddies, meanders, and other mesoscale and sub-mesoscale processes. The webinar will begin with an update on the status of the GO-BGC float array, followed by two short presentations. We’ll then close with a community discussion about recommended practices, challenges, and future perspectives of using BGC-Argo measurements to enhance our understanding of how mesoscale processes shape patterns of biogeochemistry in marine environments.

The 24th Argo Steering Team (AST) meeting is a hybrid meeting for national groups that contribute to international Argo to come together and discuss logistical and technical matters pertaining to the Argo array.

The Ocean Visions Biennial Summit 2023 will be a significant opportunity to advance the sharing of knowledge and solutions to critical challenges at the ocean-climate nexus.

The International Ocean Carbon Cooperation Project (IOCCP) and the Integrated Carbon Observation System Ocean Thematic Centre (ICOS OTC) will hold a 14-day training workshop on "Instrumenting our ocean for better observation: a training course on a suite of biogeochemical sensors"

Please join us on Tuesday June 20th at 10 am PT/1 pm ET for the quarterly GO-BGC/BGC-Argo webinar, hosted by the US Ocean Carbon and Biogeochemistry program. The webinar will begin with an update on the status of the GO-BGC float array, followed by two presentations on new tools for BGC-Argo data access and visualization, we will close with a Q and A session.
