全球气候观测系统联合规划办公室（JPO/GCOS）将推动和促进支持全球变化研究的三个主要观测系统-GCOS和全球海洋和陆地观测系统（GOOS和GTOS）-特别是GTOS的规划和发展的协调。 全球气候观测系统初级专业人员将以其综合办法为基础进行协调，以确定：（a）利用原地观测系统和天基观测系统观测大气层、海洋、陆地表面和冰冻圈的科学要求;（B）支持这三个观测系统的综合数据管理系统的需要和制定计划。 初级专业人员/全球气候观测系统将制定协议，整合从两个网络获得的数据;确定联合观测的生态地点;确定河流观测地点作为初始水文循环观测系统;制定示范/试点项目（可能是关于土壤碳的）测试观测系统进行观测和迅速有效地提供所收集数据的能力;并促进进一步开发陆地观测综合数据管理系统。 ***

*** 9727332 Spence The Joint Planning Office for the Global Climate Observing System (JPO/GCOS) will advance and promote coordination of planning for and development of the three major observing systems which support global change research -- the GCOS and the Global Ocean and Terrestrial Observing Systems (GOOS and GTOS) -- but especially the GTOS. The JPO/GCOS will base this coordination on its comprehensive approach to identifying (a) the scientific requirements for observations of the atmosphere, ocean, land surface, and cryosphere, using both in situ and space-based observing systems, and (b) the needs for and development of plans for a comprehensive data management system in support of the three observing systems. The JPO/GCOS will develop protocols to integrate data obtained from both networks; identify ecological sites for joint observations; identify river observing sites as an initial hydrological cycle observing system; develop demonstration/ pilot projects (possibly on soil carbon) to test the ability of the observing systems to make observations and deliver collected data rapidly and effectively; and promote further development of an integrated data management system for terrestrial observations. ***
