C-Saw: Time domain controls on carbon storage, release, and transformation in coastal and estuarine waters following extreme events The aim of this workshop is to push forward our knowledge of extreme weather and fire effects on coastal carbon cycling. The workshop will bring together a diverse group of scientists to build a community of monitors/observers, […]
The theme of this meeting will be mixotroph evolution, spanning from the evolutionary origins of mixotrophy to the evolutionary fate of mixotrophs in a changing ocean. The two speakers will be: Elisabeth Hehenberger (Biology Center CAS, Czech Republic) Holly Moeller (University of California, Santa Barbara, USA) Monday, Nov 14 2022 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM […]
NASA is soliciting applications for members of the Arctic-COastal Land Ocean inteRactionS (Arctic-COLORS) field campaign Science Definition Team (SDT). Arctic-COLORS is a proposed NASA-funded field campaign designed primarily to quantify the biogeochemical response of the Arctic coastal environment to global change and anthropogenic disturbances. Interested applicants should respond to this call by sending a Letter […]
OCB Scoping Workshop: Jan 18-20, 2023 (Woods Hole, MA) This 3-day scoping workshop will initiate a dialog among key stakeholders and collaborators across the commercial fishing community, federal and state governments, technology companies, and academia to focus on building a cost-effective, coastal biogeochemical (BGC) observing network. Existing data coverage often lacks the spatial and temporal […]

Marine Carbon Dioxide Removal: Essential Science and Problem Solving for Measurement, Reporting, and Verification Workshop September 27-30, 2022 (The University of Rhode Island) The central goal of this workshop is to build the OCB community’s capacity to conduct research to support the Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) of marine CDR by identifying priorities, pathways and […]
The Ocean Carbon and Biogeochemistry (OCB) Program is soliciting proposals for OCB activities that will take place or begin during the 2023 calendar year. Due to ongoing pandemic-related uncertainties, in-person activities should include contingency plans in case delays or cancellations are necessary. International collaboration is encouraged, but all proposed activities should include US-based investigator(s) in […]
OCB is seeking nominations for new Scientific Steering Committee (SSC) members. The following SSC members are scheduled to rotate off at the end of 2022: Seth Bushinsky (UH) – chemical oceanography, carbon cycle, oxygen cycle, air-sea gas exchange, autonomous vehicles Jaime Palter (URI) – physics-biogeochemistry, ocean C and heat uptake, WBCs, autonomous assets Patrick Rafter […]
GO-BGC webinar series Welcome to the GO-BGC Webinar Series! Hundreds of Biogeochemical (BGC) profiling floats have been deployed worldwide, and the number of floats is expected to continue to increase in the coming years. Specifically, the Global Ocean Biogeochemistry Array (GO-BGC) is a NSF Mid-Scale Research Infrastructure project that is funded to deploy 500 BGC […]
