Southern California Coastal Ocean Observing System SCCOOS me? –You want input from the users? –What products will help EPA with its mission? Relationship between EPA and SCCOOS –NOPP, NORL –OCEAN.US – IOOS –SCCOOS

1.Detecting and forecasting oceanic components of climate variability. 2. Facilitating safe and efficient marine operations. 3. Ensuring national security. 4. Managing living resources for sustainable use. 5. Preserving healthy and restoring degraded marine ecosystems. 6. Mitigating natural hazards. 7. Ensuring public health. Integrated Ocean Observing System: 7 Objectives

1)Long-term trends in sea level 2)Ocean carbon sources and sinks; 3)Ocean storage and global transport of heat and fresh water; 4)Air-sea exchange of heat and freshwater; 5)Surface and interior fields of phytoplankton biomass and macrozooplankton abundance; 6)Extent and condition of benthic habitats; 7)Abundance and distribution of living marine resources; 8)Land-sea freshwater flows and associated fluxes of sediments, nutrients, and contaminants. IOOS Development Plan: Initial Data Needs

Land-based sources Near coastal environment Open ocean Sinks Deposition of pollutants from air

EPA Region 9 Information needs Sources –Dry-weather urban runoff –Runoff as a function of rain –Loadings as a function of runoff –Land vs air Coastal Processes –Mixing –Circulation –Transport and Fate Biological effects
