The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) was created to serve PIs funded by the NSF Biological and Chemical Oceanography Programs as a facility where marine biogeochemical and ecological data and information developed in the course of scientific research can easily be disseminated, protected, and stored on short and intermediate time-frames. The Data Management Office also provides research scientists and others with the tools and systems necessary to work with marine biogeochemical and ecological data from heterogeneous sources with increased efficacy. The BCO-DMO data management system is composed of a metadata database, the distributed client-server data system, and a Web browser interface with simple text-based and map-based user interfaces that provide access to the information and data available from the BCO-DMO repository. During the proposal period, the office will manage existing and new data sets from individual scientific investigators and collaborative groups of investigators, and will continue to make these available online. The office will work with principal investigators and other data contributors on data quality control; maintain an inventory and program thesaurus of strictly defined field names; generate metadata Directory Interchange Format records required by Federal agencies; ensure submission of data to national data centers; support and encourage data synthesis by providing new, online, web-based display tools; facilitate interoperability among different data portals; and facilitate regional, national, and international data and information exchange.Intellectual Merit: The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office is providing integrated chemical, biological, and physical data collections from a number of large and intermediate programs, and individual projects. The data being served provide the scientific investigators with an opportunity to explore the complex and multifaceted datasets wherever they reside world-wide and to collaborate with colleagues in addressing pressing environmental questions, problems, and challenges that are exacerbated with the increasing pace of climate change. The opportunity and the challenge is to make the integration of these coordinated, and diverse data sets yield a deeper understanding of the workings of ocean ecological and biogeochemical systems than any single approach used alone. As the analysis of ocean processes becomes more and more sophisticated, multidisciplinary integration will also grow more complex. The BCO-DMO has become a fundamental component for information exchange without which the goals of existing and future programs cannot be met.Broader Impacts: The BCO-DMO collection of data sets contributed by researchers funded by NSF OCE Biology and Chemistry Programs is a publicly available resource accessible via the BCO-DMO website. It supports synthesis and modeling activities, reuse of oceanographic data for new research endeavors, availability of "real data" for teachers/students at K-12 and college level to use in their classes, and provides decision-support field data for policy-relevant issues. BCO-DMO outreach activities help to foster long-term collaborative partnerships between data management professionals and research investigators through participation in community training courses and workshops both National and International. Our participation in these activities also helps to reduce community barriers by fostering the sharing of ideas between synergistic but independent research. A key component in the development of interoperable data repository systems is adoption of cyberinfrastructure standards to enable exchange of data and information between distributed data systems. Exchange of knowledge at oceanographic and informatics meetings is an important mechanism by which standards development and adoption occurs. Because we are dedicated to the use of open-source and standards-based technologies, the BCO-DMO approach should prove useful to other disciplines.

生物和化学海洋学数据管理办公室（BCO-DMO）是为NSF生物和化学海洋学计划资助的PI服务的，作为一个设施，在科学研究过程中开发的海洋生物地球化学和生态数据和信息可以很容易地在短期和中期内传播，保护和存储。数据管理办公室还向研究科学家和其他人提供必要的工具和系统，以便更有效地处理来自不同来源的海洋生物地球化学和生态数据。BCO-DMO数据管理系统由一个元数据数据库、分布式客户-服务器数据系统和一个网络浏览器界面组成，该界面具有简单的基于文本和基于地图的用户界面，可以访问BCO-DMO储存库中的信息和数据。在提议期间，该办公室将管理来自个别科学调查人员和调查人员协作小组的现有和新的数据集，并将继续在网上提供这些数据集。该办公室将与主要调查人员和其他数据提供者就数据质量控制开展合作;维持一个严格定义的字段名称的清单和程序词库;生成联邦机构所需的元数据目录交换格式记录;确保向国家数据中心提交数据;通过提供新的在线网络显示工具支持和鼓励数据合成;促进不同数据门户之间的互操作性;知识产权：生物和化学海洋学数据管理办公室正在提供来自一些大型和中型计划以及单个项目的综合化学、生物和物理数据收集。所提供的数据为科学调查人员提供了一个机会，无论他们居住在世界各地，都可以探索复杂和多方面的数据集，并与同事合作解决紧迫的环境问题，问题和挑战，这些问题和挑战随着气候变化的步伐越来越快而加剧。机遇和挑战是，使这些协调的，不同的数据集的整合产生更深入的了解海洋生态和生物地球化学系统的运作比任何单一的方法单独使用。随着对海洋过程的分析变得越来越复杂，多学科综合也将变得更加复杂。BCO-DMO已成为信息交换的基本组成部分，没有它的目标，现有的和未来的programmes.Broader的影响：BCO-DMO收集的数据集由美国国家科学基金会资助的OCE生物和化学计划的研究人员贡献是一个公开的资源，可通过BCO-DMO网站访问。它支持合成和建模活动，海洋学数据的重新使用，为新的研究工作，“真实的数据”的可用性，教师/学生在K-12和大学水平，在他们的课堂上使用，并提供决策支持的政策相关问题的现场数据。BCO-DMO外展活动通过参与国家和国际社区培训课程和研讨会，有助于促进数据管理专业人员和研究调查人员之间的长期合作伙伴关系。我们参与这些活动也有助于通过促进协同但独立的研究之间的想法共享来减少社区障碍。开发可互操作的数据储存库系统的一个关键组成部分是采用网络基础设施标准，以便能够在分布式数据系统之间交换数据和信息。在海洋学和信息学会议上交流知识是制定和通过标准的一个重要机制。因为我们致力于使用开源和基于标准的技术，BCO-DMO方法应该证明对其他学科有用。
