SUMMARY:GO-BGC Science Webinar: High-Latitude Biogeochemistry
DESCRIPTION: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 high-latitude ocean biogeochemistry by exploring the research of two groups that participated in the 2023 GO-BGC/BGC Argo Float Data Workshop at the University of Massachusetts Boston. 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 and Q and A session. Recordings will be available on the OCB and GO-BGC websites. \nWebinar agenda: \n\nAn update on the GO-BGC program\,Yui Takeshita (Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute\, USA).\nBiogeochemical properties of the Lofoten Basin Eddy from 14 years of BGC-Argo float data\, Daniel Koestner (University of Bergen\, Norway).    Oceanic eddies are typically short lived but are a crucial physical phenomenon supporting heat and nutrient exchanges across water bodies. The Lofoten Basin Eddy (LBE) is a seemingly permanent topographically constrained anti-cyclonic eddy situated in the northern Norwegian Sea containing relatively cool surface waters and consistently warmer subsurface waters. As such\, the conditions in the LBE may drive significantly different biogeochemical processes than the surrounding waters. Here we examine the unique biogeochemical signatures of the LBE with the 14-year timeseries of BGC-Argo float observations. We describe methodology for float-eddy colocation and examine differences in key biogeochemical parameters inside and outside of the eddy\, including organic carbon export.\nLessons and opportunities from the Southern Ocean Sea Ice team at the 2023 GO-BGC Float Data Workshop\,  Sophie Shapiro (University of California San Diego\, USA). In the winter of 2023\, the Southern Ocean reached a record low sea ice extent anomaly. This unprecedented low sea ice coverage coincided with the August convening of the GO-BGC float data workshop. What insights could a cohort of motivated researchers uncover with two working days and the BGC Argo dataset? In this talk\, we present preliminary data from BGC floats deployed in the Southern Ocean marginal sea ice zone. We illustrate the potential of the observational network to investigate further questions about the dynamics and impacts of changing sea ice. Finally\, we highlight insights and challenges from the GO-BGC workshop to demonstrate the further potential of collaborative data working groups.\nDiscussion\n\nClick here to view the webinar recording.

SUMMARY:8th WMO Workshop on the Impact of Various Observing Systems on Numerical Weather Prediction and Earth System Prediction
DESCRIPTION:The 8th WMO Workshop on the Impact of Various Observing Systems on Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) and Earth System Prediction (ESP) will be organized by WMO and will be hosted by the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI) in Sweden\, at the SMHI main office in Norrköping\, on 27-30 May 2024. Participation from all the major numerical weather prediction (NWP) centers and communities active in the field of impact studies about the observing systems is anticipated. The Workshop will be held in a hybrid format (in-person and remote participation will be enabled)\, and will be conducted in English. \nWMO’s Impact Workshop series is an important quadrennial venue for providing science evidence on the impacts of surface and space-based observing systems\, on short to medium and longer-range forecasting including climate monitoring. Conclusions from the Workshop provide guidance on how to optimize the use of the current global observing system as well as help guide its future evolution. \nThis 8th Workshop will continue to focus on assessing the impacts of various observing systems in all Earth system domains on NWP\, but will extend the scope to also encompass the impact assessment of the various observing systems\, to other Earth system applications. This is done in order to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the value of the observations and to support the strategic goals of WMO. \nExperts who have results of impact assessment of various observing systems\, especially those responding to the science questions\, are invited to submit a short abstract. Contributions to the Workshop may fall within general topics that will frame the Workshop sessions (to be determined at a later stage)\, or they may simply address one or several of the specific studies and science questions. Note that to increase the chances of being responsive to this call\, abstracts should clearly articulate what type of impact assessment(s) will be presented. \nAbstract submission deadline is December 15\, 2023. \n
