4th Meeting of CEOS-CGMS Working Group on Climate EUMETSAT, Darmstadt, Germany 5 – 7 March 2014 Carolin Richter, Director, GCOS Secretariat, GCOS Programme Up-date and Feedback to WG Climate Global Climate Observing System

GCOS encompasses the climate components of: the WMO observing systems (WIGOS: GOS, GAW, WHYCOS,...) the IOC-led co-sponsored Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS) the FAO-led co-sponsored Global Terrestrial Observing System (GTOS) observational elements of research programmes (WCRP, IGBP,...) other systems contributing climate observations, data management or products which together form our overall global observing system for climate, and the climate-observing component of the GEO System of Systems Scope of GCOS Global Climate Observing System

GCOS Expert Panels Atmospheric Observation Panel for Climate (AOPC) Platform for discussions on the climate-components of existing research and operational atmospheric observing systems and the related programmes, including important cross-cutting links to the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) as well as to the Global Atmosphere Watch (GAW) Programme. It has the most direct interaction with WMO programmes (Space, Observation) and Technical Commissions (Climate, Basic Systems); Focus is on the GCOS Surface Network (GSN), the GCOS Upper-Air Network (GUAN) and the GCOS Reference Upper-Air Network (GRUAN). The Panel in its future sessions will continue to advise explicitly on climate-observing elements of the WMO Integrated Global Observing System (WIGOS), and seek to ensure that there is full cooperation between GCOS, WIGOS and WIS as they develop. Links to OOPC on observations required to calculate air-sea fluxes and governing/influencing processes. Chairman Adrian Simmons (UK) stepping down in 2014 Next meeting of AOPC-19: 9-11 April 2014, JRC, Ispra, Italy

GCOS Expert Panels Terrestrial Observation Panel for Climate (TOPC) - co-sponsored by GTOS Co-sponsored by FAO, Secretariat of GTOS is non-functional at FAO; new arrangements are needed Dr. Riccardo Valentini (Italy) has handed in his resignation as the Chairman of the Global Terrestrial Observation Network (GTOS) Steering Committee in March The GTOS Secretariat, formally hosted at FAO in Rome, Italy, has been without staff support for more than a year. Strong partnerships with the Global Terrestrial Networks (GTNs) on lakes, permafrost, glaciers, rivers, and hydrological issues. Future link to OOPC on requirements focusing on observations in the coastal zone. Preparation of a joint workshop of GCOS and GOFC-GOLD on ‘Observations for Climate Change Mitigation’ from 5 to 7 May 2014 in Geneva, which will focus on engaging REDD+ experts, the agriculture mitigation community, representatives from the climate modelling and integrated impact assessment community, etc. Koni Steffen (Switzerland) Chair since 2013 Next meeting of TOPC-16: March 2014, JRC, Ispra, Italy

GCOS Expert Panels Ocean Observations Panel for Climate (OOPC) - co-sponsored by GOOS Reactivated following GOOS reorganization; support now based in GCOS Secretariat, the OOPC Technical Secretariat has moved to GCOS at WMO headquarters. Due to a restructuring of the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS) that follows the Framework for Ocean Observations (FOO), GOOS has – similar to the structure of GCOS – three expert panels for ocean physical observations (OOPC), biogeochemical observations (IOCCP), and biological observations (formed in November 2013). New Terms of Reference and Work Plan following OOPC-XVI in Washington, September OOPC will expand its focus to coastal oceans/shelf areas, and the deep ocean. 2013/2014 – coordination of the Tropical Pacific Observing System (TPOS) workshop, organized by NOAA and JAMSTEC, had been held at Scribbs Institute from January 2014, and discussed the potential of existing (i.e. Argo, satellite observation) and new technologies (i.e. profiling floats, gliders) in the region. Mark Bourassa (US) and Toshio Suga (Japan) co-Chairs since 2013 Next meeting of OOPC-17: July 2014, Barcelona, Spain

The sponsor’s review of GCOS The sponsors of GCOS have set up a Review Board: to assess the Programme’s mandate and objectives, and the added value it provides to sponsors’ members and the EO community taking account of developments since the sponsors’ MoU on GCOS was agreed in 1998, including −establishment of GEOSS, GFCS, WIGOS, PROVIA, Future Earth, … −evolving requirements and capabilities for observations and products meeting in March and October 2013 reporting in final form in April 2014

Feedback GCOS is not a static programme, but adjusting to (new) users and new requirements ECVs and its applications  GFCS, PROVIA, Future Earth, GEO, IPCC AR5 ‑ How to adjust your activities to possibly revised ECV requirements and new ECVs? GCOS assessment cycle independent of other mechanisms ‑ Architecture for Climate Monitoring, Work Plan of the WG Climate, ECV inventory, automated reporting ‑ No contradiction to discussed time lines here, what can be reported to GCOS progress report?.
