New ocean sensors could transform how scientists track the marine carbon cycle The world’s oceans do far more than support vital marine ecosystems and provide food and recreation. They help regulate the Earth’s climate, absorbing vast amounts of heat and CO2, acting as one of th...

#OceanObservation 🌊 provides the knowledge base for global weather forecasts and to address climate change, biodiversity loss, coastal resilience or security. DYK that half the world's funding for #Ocean Observation (used to) come(s) from the US? No longer, alas. How should @ec.europa.eu step up? 👇

👋Thanks @imev-mer.fr & #VelaLab for recovering BGC #Argofloat WMO3902692 in the Med. Sea.

“Presses ahead” is one way to put it. But before that, @ec.europa.eu wants to hear your feedback to its #OceanObservation Initiative

👉 ec.europa.eu/info/law/bet...

Commission seeks feedback on EU ocean policy The European Commission has launched a call for evidence to shape the European Ocean Act, planned for adoption in 2026.

As announced #EUOceanPact, @ec.europa.eu is collecting input to shape its future legislative proposal for a European #OceanAct 🇪🇺🌊📜 - until 09/02

Key features:
🌊🗺️ strengthen #maritimespatialplanning
🔭🛰️ structure 🇪🇺 #OceanObservation governance
🐙🐟🦪🌿 enhance marine protection
✂️🔢 simplify reporting

👇

🌊 Marine research infrastructures gather diverse ocean data -
discover in our Q&A with Carlos Rodero García (CSIC), how data fusion turns fragmented observations into more accurate Essential Ocean Variable products 👇
