1. Toward verifiable science: iPython meets PROV-O (Semantics in Ecosystems Assessments). April 16, 2014 ERRT Peter Fox (RPI/ Tetherless World Constellation and WHOI/AOP&E) pfox@cs.rpi.edupfox@cs.rpi.edu (@taswegian) and collaborators on the NSF INTEROP ECO-OP project. http://tw.rpi.edu/web/project/ECOOPhttp://tw.rpi.edu/web/project/ECOOP

10. Vision? “Our vision is to develop, facilitate, and maintain sustained multi-way engagement of natural and social scientists and many practitioners in multi- scale local to global networks for LMEs”. Goal: We want to perform routine assessments of LMEs involving all (or as many) stakeholders and we want robust science data presented in forms that various end-users can consume… and verify
