Agenda Day 1 (Tuesday, Oct. 15): Morning (0830) Welcoming remarks by Christian, Dr. Tom Feldbush (Vice Chancellor for Research), Lauriston King (Director of Coastal Resources Management PhD program at East Carolina University), and Tschirley. Dr. Swart, Porvost of ECU will welcome the panel later in the day. Introduction of participants, provide background. –Christian and Tschirley provide introduction and overview (15 min. each) Bowen presents summary of COOP activities, status and protocol for relating components of observing system (30 min.) BREAK Establishment of goals for workshop, panel and programme. –What are the general focal issues. –What is the product of the workshop. –How does the workshop fit into the broader context of implementing a programme. Describe user driven program. –Describe the vision of OS, the gap perceived to be filled by this initiative. Identify scales of interest. –What is “global change” –What is the nature of global and regional issues and products. Identify limitations and boundary conditions. –What is too small or too large (?) to consider. –What are the inherent limitations of the programme’s design.

Afternoon (1330) Begin addressing Objective 1. To identify key issues and drivers of global change in which the terrestrial coastal interface plays a significant role, especially in relation to climate change and loss of biodiversity. GTOS (Tschirley) Brief presentations and discussion on issues addressed by other programmes Discussion should focus on issues that are appropriate for coastal GTOS (15 min. each). –IAEA (de Mora) –NOAA (Clark, Kineman) –LOICZ (Talaue McManus) –Ramsar (Jiménez) –GIWA (Daler) BREAK TEMS Summary and discussion of straw man document. Goal by the end of the day is to have an initial list of issues.

Objective The expert meeting will develop the elements of an implementation plan for coastal activities within the UN sponsored Global Terrestrial Observing System (GTOS). This is the first of potentially 3 workshops to accomplish that goal. The focus will be on identifying the individual components of the coastal observing system.

Expected Results To identify key issues and drivers of global change in which the terrestrial coastal interface plays a significant role, especially in relation to climate change and loss of biodiversity. To develop a strategic approach, based on these issues and drivers, whereby GTOS activities contribute to ongoing or planned research or resource management initiatives being undertaken at the global or large regional scales. To identify a core set of coastal variables, both in situ and remotely sensed, which will aid assessment of change. Steps would then be taken to identify organizations and agencies that make regular observations of the variables and to register the organizations in the Terrestrial Ecosystem Monitoring Sites database (TEMS).

Users Issues / Phenomena of Interest Observations / Variables Information management Products / Models DPSIR

Three directions of the program Support GTOS themes Link to coastal GOOS Develop themes unique to land-based activities of the coast.

Other meeting goals Get to know each other. Background and goals of observing systems, especially GTOS and Coastal GOOS. Describe meaning of user driven program. Identify scales of interest. Identify limitations and boundary conditions. Use a “strawman” example to work through the objectives.
