Please join us on June 20th, 10 am Pacific/1 pm Eastern for the quarterly GO-BGC/BGC-Argo webinar, hosted by the US Ocean Carbon and Biogeochemistry Project Office. This webinar will include two presentations on new tools for BGC-Argo data access and visualization. Dr. Reiner Schlitzer will present on webODV, a new online tool based on Ocean Data View that can be used to visualize, explore, and export BGC-Argo data through a GUI interface. Hartmut Frenzel will present on the One-Argo toolbox, an open source toolbox designed to efficiently access, process, and visualize BGC, Core, and Deep Argo data. Float data can be searched using a variety of criteria including sensor type, location, and date. Recordings will be available on the OCB and GO-BGC websites.

We are pleased to invite applications for the new C-CoMP Faculty Fellow Program. The C-CoMP Faculty Fellow Program supports researchers whose lines of inquiry complement C-CoMP's scientific and education research agendas. We strongly value diversity and encourage people from minoritized and marginalized groups to apply. The Faculty Fellowship will provide one month of salary ($40K, including benefits and institutional indirect costs) per year for up to 2 years to support research and networking activities that advance C-CoMP's mission in a manner consistent with our guiding principles. Faculty Fellows are expected to participate in C-CoMP meetings and working groups, and are encouraged to contribute to C-CoMP's goals in education, outreach, and diversity.
Individuals must have a PhD and be employed at a US-based institution as research- or tenure-track faculty and researchers currently affiliated with -CoMP laboratories are not eligible. C-CoMP is committed to promoting equity and inclusion in ocean science research to enhance diversitv in the ocean science workforce. We seek to amplifv voices and perspectives from historically marginalized groups, including underrepresented racial and ethnic minorities as well as from individuals who would bring other dimensions of diversity to ocean science (e.g., sexual, gender, ableness, socioeconomic). We strongly encourage individuals from traditionally minoritized and marginalized backgrounds to apply.
Individuals should provide a curriculum vitae (up to 5 pages) and a research statement (up to 2 pages) that articulates specific complementary benefits of participation to the applicant and C-CoMP. In our research statement, please include 1-2 sentences expressing your commitment to the C-CoMP guiding principles. We also request that individuals submit a voluntary self identification data sheet. Combine application materials into a single pdf file and email to contact_c-comp@whoi.edu (CC Sofia Ibarrarán-Viniegra, sibarraran@whoi.edu) with the subject line FF2023_lastname. Applications will be accepted until June 15, 2023. Fellows will be notified of their appointments in mid-August. Please visit the C-CoMP Faculty Fellow Program webpage to learn more!
A GO-BGC/BGC-Argo Float Data Workshop will be held August 21-23, 2023 at UMass Boston, USA. The format of the workshop will be a hands-on exercise with open practices, inclusive participation, and thoughtful problem exploration. Attendees will generate research ideas utilizing Biogeochemical Argo float data and start working on projects as teams. This will be an active experience designed to familiarize participants with float data analysis techniques, illustrate scientific applications of float data, facilitate collaboration among diverse participants, and develop new tools for data analysis.
Workshop participants will be staying in the student dorms at UMass Boston. Rooms will be single occupancy with private bathrooms. Your room, breakfast and lunch for the workshop will be covered as part of the GO-BGC NSF Grant. Some travel awards are available for domestic travel to and from the workshop with a focus on early career participants.
The workshop is designed for in-person participation due to the collaborative nature of the projects. Some content will be recorded.
Applications are now open. Evaluation of applications and travel award requests will begin on 20 May 2023.

Are you interested in contributing to the development of the international BioGeoSCAPES science plan?
The NSF-funded Accelnet Development of an International Network for the Study of Ocean Metabolism and Nutrient Cycles on a Changing Planet (BioGeoSCAPES) will convene an international BioGeoSCAPES science planning workshop on 6-9 November 2023 at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (with hybrid option).
The objectives of this workshop are to:
In-person participation will be capped at ~80 people with representation across nations, disciplines, etc., to ensure that we are able to have focused discussions that will inform the delivery of the workshop goals. There will also be a series of virtual brainstorming sessions spanning different time zones leading up to the workshop to enable even broader input ahead of the workshop. Partial travel stipends will be available on an as-needed basis, and more details will be provided as the date draws closer. The workshop application will open in mid-late Spring 2023.
Please visit the newly updated BioGeoSCAPES website, join the email list, and follow us on Twitter to stay in the loop!
In person registration is full, we are still accepting applications for virtual participation.

2023 Cornell Satellite Remote Sensing Training Program
June 5-16, 2023 (Cornell Univ., Ithaca, NY)
The Ocean Carbon & Biogeochemistry (OCB) Program will support five US-based students or postdocs to participate in this course, including tuition, housing, and a travel stipend. To apply for support, please send your 2-page CV (NSF biosketch format) and a brief statement of interest (1 page max) to the OCB Project Office (hbenway@whoi.edu) by March 17, 2023. The statement should describe your interest in the course and its potential to enhance your research and your professional development. Application materials will be reviewed by the OCB Project Office, OCB Scientific Steering Committee leadership, and the course organizer Bruce Monger (Cornell Univ.). Please bear in mind that this is a full immersion class and participation for the entire 2 weeks is required. Visit the course website (http://oceanography.eas.cornell.edu/satellite) for more information about the course content. If you have additional questions about the course, please contact course organizer Bruce Monger (bcm3@cornell.edu).
The US Carbon Cycle Science Program is seeking nominations, including self-nominations, for potential leads and authors to draft the Third Decadal US Carbon Cycle Science Plan. Please submit your suggestions via this form. Once leads are finalized, a workshop will be organized to kick off the writing stage of the plan.

In September 2022, the OCB community gathered for a workshop to build the OCB community’s capacity to conduct research on Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) of marine CDR by identifying priorities, pathways and best practices in this relatively new area. The workshop was designed to provide both education for the community as well as ample opportunities for discussion to collectively grapple with the science needed to measure and verify CDR in marine environments. At this workshop, we convened 5 main topical sessions: Lessons from land-based CDR MRV; the landscape of current marine CDR MRV; Models, methods, and measurements for sea-air CO2 flux and permanence / durability of CDR methods; MRV in an ecosystem context; and MRV in a social and environmental justice context. On the last day, we convened our group to address how we could potentially grow this community and continue to build CDR and MRV knowledge, opportunities, best practices, and interdisciplinary networks in the OCB community. Recordings of plenary lectures and panel discussions are available on the workshop website. In this webinar, we’ll briefly review the key lessons learned from this workshop, some information about community feedback, a few nascent outcomes driven by our conversations, and discuss what’s coming next. Join us!
