Ocean United Outreach and Advocacy Group

It is only by making a compelling case for the benefits of sustained and integrated ocean observation and forecasting that long-term support for the Global Ocean Observing System will be realized.

The purpose of this website is to provide a communications "toolkit" for the ocean observation and forecasting community.

This site provides a variety of communications material and a means of capturing your ideas on how to extend and improve this material to make advocacy and outreach even more compelling.

The site also provides a forum for dynamic exchange of information between different groups engaged in building, operating and using systems for observing and forecasting the ocean and coastal environment.

Ocean United is a group dedicated to increasing the visibility of Ocean Observing Systems and educating the public and policy makers about their necessity. Many activities are in progress to further these goals.

To access these tools you must login from the Home page.
