- Authors
SCHILLER, ANDREAS; MEYERS, GARY; SMITH, NEVILLE R.
- Abstract
The article focuses on the implementation of a multidisciplinary Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) and the first operational global and regional ocean forecasting system in the Southern Hemisphere (BLUElink) aimed at exploring oceans around Australia. IMOS, a 40 million dollar Australian initiative is expected to provide value-added products as well as free, open, and timely access to marine data. IMOS activities are split into bluewater and coastal components. BLUElink is an Australian national ocean modeling effort that focuses on phenomena of smaller scale and shorter duration than typical climate models.
