In the last ten years, scientists have set up a global observing system to monitor the world's oceans. The observation system works by combining satellite observations with data from in-water recording devices such as buoys, tide gauges and an array of more than 3000 Argo robots.
Now the initial system is up and running, scientists are meeting next week at OceanObs'09 in Venice (21-25 September) to see how they can expand the system and, perhaps most importantly, secure it for the long term.
OceanObs '09 is organized by UNESCO's Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission and the European Space Agency (ESA) and will ly hfmdwqne cg DPNUVXRV tgt dqsn 576 jvyitjmyykib jxsj 79 ovgpwtind.
