GOVST-IV-11: KWB to set up new webpage (freely available) explaining the use and benefit of the GOV website and the twiki for all website users, as current take-up is quite weak.

GOVST-IV-17: KWB to set up a link to ocean synthesis/reanalysis directory from GOVST website GOVST-IV-18: GOVST co-chairs to look in the synergy of WIPs, IP and WP and to develop a plan of how to respond to the review.

GOVST-V meeting, Beijing, China, October 2014 Project office work – overview 2014

GOVST-V meeting, Beijing, China, October 2014 Successful organisation of the GODAE OceanView Symposium & Review (Nov 2013) Organisation and support for recent and coming GOV Task Team meetings (COSS-TT, Jan 2014; OSEval-TT, Dec 2014 Dec; COSS-TT, Sep 2015) Publication of the First Draft of the new GODAE Ocean View Strategic Plan (June 2014) Planning and organisation of a GODAE OceanView Special Issue (in progress) Organisation of the GOVST-V Annual meeting, Beijing 2014 Highlights

GOVST-V meeting, Beijing, China, October 2014 Stepping down of both MEAP-TT co-chairs after the GOV review Loss of Nicolas Ferry as a friend & colleague and representative of the French OO effort Stepping down of Eric Dombrowsky as co-chairs of the GOVST and leaving the team altogether Worsening of the financial situation for GOV due to discontinuation of funds from some sponsors Setbacks & blows

GOVST-V meeting, Beijing, China, October 2014 Positive developments Fraser Davidson has agreed to the co-chair role of GOV and as he is closely involved with ET-OOFS we hope to strengthen the link with JCOMM We found two new very motivated co-chairs for the MEAP-TT: Marion Gehlen (LCSE, France) and Katja Fennel (Dalhousie University) Patrons’ Group leadership change (Paul DiGiacomo is new chair) strengthens link with NOAA Review outcome provides very positive support for GOV continuation New strategy allows for a reshaping of GOV operations, e.g. regards TT activities

GOVST-V meeting, Beijing, China, October 2014 GODAE OceanView GOV Review & Strategic Plan

GOVST-V meeting, Beijing, China, October 2014 Project office  to be called Program Office Review Panel impressed with the overall operations, the efficiency and the effectiveness of the project office. Recommendations:  significant value in documenting efficiencies of program office through an assessment of contributions for GOV, as this would clearly identify the impact of the Office as evidenced by quantified leverage and added value.  there should be a stronger level of effort in communicating between secretariats on common areas of work and opportunities for enhancing collaboration. Review outcomes - collaborations

GOVST-V meeting, Beijing, China, October 2014 Review outcomes - website The GOV Web site is most effective for internal GOV community activities. The site was determined to be less effective for an external audience. Recommendations:  If the site is intended to include an external audience, messages for those audiences should be compact and timeless, and should be updated through external links, an inherently more efficient practice.

GOVST-V meeting, Beijing, China, October 2014 The GOVST is supported by a program office currently located at the Met Office, UK. The GOVST works on a five-year planning and review cycle. Financial and in-kind support required to run the program office, promote GODAE OceanView activities, organize Science Team meetings, symposia and summer schools will be provided by stakeholder agencies and national groups who will be represented in the GODAE OceanView Patrons Group. Through its co-chairs and program office, GODAE OceanView will interact with and report to JCOMM It will be beneficial to also establish closer collaboration between the GOV programme office and project/programme offices of other organisations. Therefore an exchange of expertise and experience between project/programme officers is desirable, e.g. through regular meetings or telephone conferences. Strategic Plan – program office
