Venue:Â Virtual Online Event
Dates:Â 14 – 18 February, 2022
The deadline for abstract submission for the Ocean Carbon From Space Workshop has been extended to 15 December 2022. The workshop is being organized by ESA, together with PML and support from NASA, and will be held virtually from 14 to 18 February 2022.
This workshop is the 2nd in the CLEO (Colour and Light in the ocean from Earth Observations) series, and is a contribution to the CEOS Work Plan on the Aquatic Carbon Applications, as endorsed by the CEOS Ocean Colour Radiometry Virtual Constellation (OCR-VC) founded within the IOCCG.
The main objectives of the workshop are to bring together remote sensing scientists, field scientists and modellers around the common topic of ocean carbon, its pools and fluxes, its variability in space and time and the understanding of its processes and interactions with the earth system. The aim is to articulate a collective view of the current status, identify gaps in knowledge and formulate the scientific roadmap for the next decade, with an emphasis on evaluating where Earth Observations (EO) may contribute.
A series of sessions in the workshop will target specific themes. Each session will consist of invited talks, contributed oral and poster presentations, and a group discussion. The workshop will conclude with a synthesis and recommendation session.
Submission of abstracts contributing to the following themes are invited:
Pools of Carbon in the Ocean
1. Particulate Organic Carbon
2. Phytoplankton Carbon
3. Particulate Inorganic Carbon
4. Dissolved Organic Carbon
5. Dissolved Inorganic Carbon
Main processes
6. Marine Primary Production
7. Export Production
8. Underwater Light Field
9. Air-Sea Exchanges
10. Land-Sea Exchanges
Crosscutting themes
11. Uncertainty Estimates
12. Freshwater Carbon
13. Blue Carbon
14. Extreme Events, Tipping Points and Impacts on Carbon
15. Climate Variability and Change
16. Ocean Carbon Budget: How Close to Closure?
