Definition
- U.S. GLOBEC (GLOBal ocean ECosystems dynamics, http://www.usglobec.org/) is a research program organized by oceanographers and fisheries scientists to address the question of how global climate change may affect the abundance and production of animals in the sea. The U.S. GLOBEC Program currently has major research efforts underway in the Georges Bank / Northwest Atlantic Region, and the Northeast Pacific (with components in the California Current and in the Coastal Gulf of Alaska). U.S. GLOBAL OCEAN ECOSYSTEM DYNAMICS, SOUTHERN OCEAN The fundamental objectives of United States Global Ocean Ecosystems Dynamics (U.S. GLOBEC) Program are dependent upon the cooperation of scientists from several disciplines. Physicists, biologists, and chemists must make use of data collected during U.S. GLOBEC field programs to further our understanding of the interplay of physics, biology, and chemistry. Our objectives require quantitative analysis of interdisciplinary data sets and, therefore, data must be exchanged between researchers. To extract the full scientific value, data must be made available to the scientific community on a timely basis. U.S. GLOBEC Southern Ocean Homepage: "http://www.ccpo.odu.edu/Research/globec_menu.html" Data is available on-line through the U.S. GLOBEC Data System at http://globec.whoi.edu/jg/dir/globec/soglobec/ [This information was adapted from the U.S. GLOBEC web pages.] (en)
