It was initiated by the IASC in 1999 and has evolved into the most important annual gathering of the Arctic research organisation. \nThe summit brings together perspectives from across national and operational/research boundaries\, and centers Indigenous priorities in the conversation. Working groups at the summit link regional Arctic observing efforts into global observing systems\, provide community input into SAON initiatives\, connect the broader observing community with data system efforts\, and highlight areas of pressing need within the observing community. The AOS facilitates these conversations through a short statement and white paper process\, and plenary and breakout sessions at the summit. Recommendations generated at the summit inform decisions from the project level to the Arctic Science Ministerial.

The event will also look ahead at EuroSea’s legacy and next steps. \nEuroSea worked to accelerate the Technology Readiness Levels of instruments\, sensors and platforms\, and integrating these observations with ocean models\, delivering cost-effective actionable information for improved ocean governance and monitoring. EuroSea focused on innovation in the full ocean observing value chain – from the requirement setting to data collection and delivery of forecasts and information. EuroSea impact will result in knowledge transfer towards innovation in the European ocean observing\, monitoring and governance in support of a sustainable blue economy and responding to policy needs. \nThis final meeting will be followed by the EuroSea Symposium on Ocean Observing and Forecasting on 21 September 2023 at the IOC-UNESCO Headquarters in Paris. The Symposium is a high-level event bringing together national and international stakeholders from policy\, science\, and industry. It will celebrate the remarkable innovations in European ocean observing and forecasting over recent years. It will serve as a platform for participants to reflect on past achievements and address the challenges that lie ahead in this vital field. The event aims to present and discuss recommendations for building a sustainable ocean observing and forecasting system that provides accessible\, timely\, and actionable data and information to all ocean users. By fostering collaboration between diverse stakeholders\, including policymakers\, scientists\, and industry leaders\, the symposium strives to develop a unified approach to ocean research and forecasting. \n\nEuroSea final assembly 2023 agenda\, click here.\nEuroSea Symposium 2023 (including link to live streaming) URL:https://www.eu4oceanobs.eu/event/eurosea-final-general-assembly-and-symposium-2023/ LOCATION:Paris CATEGORIES:All events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.eu4oceanobs.eu/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/EuroSea-logo.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230829 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230901 DTSTAMP:20250601T022054 CREATED:20230713T095940Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230713T100037Z UID:5442-1693267200-1693526399@www.eu4oceanobs.eu SUMMARY:International Marine Debris Data Harmonization Workshop DESCRIPTION:The overall goal of this international technical workshop is to enhance the level of data including associated metadata identification to support global data harmonization for selected key marine debris indicators that will underpin the successful mitigation of plastic pollution.
