9906108ColeFunds are being transferred to the Office of the Chief Scientist at NOAA to cost-share certain activities associated with the development of a Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS). Oceanographers have long recognized the value of an ongoing operational observing system that would provide fundamental measurements to meet the observational needs of many user communities. Over the past several years, several international organizations have worked together to initiate plans for such an observational system. Agreements have been reached by several governmental organizations to jointly sponsor a GOOS program. A fully implemented GOOS will satisfy ocean observing requirements for climate monitoring, assessment and prediction, for monitoring and assessment of marine living resources, and of the health of the ocean, for monitoring the coastal zone environment and its changes, and for meteorological and oceanographic operational services.

9906108Cole 资金将转移至 NOAA 首席科学家办公室，用于分摊与全球海洋观测系统 (GOOS) 开发相关的某些活动的费用。海洋学家早就认识到持续运行的观测系统的价值，该系统将提供基本测量结果，以满足许多用户群体的观测需求。 在过去几年中，多个国际组织共同启动了此类观测系统的计划。 多个政府组织已达成协议，共同赞助 GOOS 计划。 全面实施的GOOS将满足气候监测、评估和预测、海洋生物资源监测和评估、海洋健康、监测海岸带环境及其变化、气象和海洋业务服务等海洋观测需求。
