Presentation Title:
Role of Integrated Ocean Observing Systems for Climate Change Studies

Desription of Presentation:
Integrated Ocean Observing Systems (IOOS) bring together coastal observations to provide information necessary to address issues in climate change, ecosystem preservation and management, coastal water quality, maritime operations, coastal hazrds and national security. As a science-based decision support system, IOOS works interactively with local, state and federal agencies, resource managers, industry, policy makers, educators, scientists and the general public to provide data, models and products that advance our understanding of the current and future state of our coastal and global environment.
