IN SITU OBSERVATION
Coriolis aims to be a one-stop shopping for ocean in-situ data: - near real-time (assimilation)
- delayed-mode (validation)

Coriolis project: routine measurements on board the research vessels
- Consider the data collected on board the research vessels as a full part of a global and continuous component of the ocean observing system.Ships considered are mainly french vessels. Effort is made at an European level
- Define and set up the data collection transmission protocols, evaluate the sensors drifts in relation with the science group, make the link between ship operators and data centre

Research vessels component
• Data considered:
– T and S vertical profile data from XBT and CTD
– surface T & S Data– Current data from VM-ADCP
• In the frame of :– national projects– european funded projects
• In relationship with international projects:– GOSUD (IODE)

Directions for potential collaboration (1/5)
Access to new sources of data (1/2)SAMOS collect data from US Research Vessels
Both meteorological and oceanographic data (SST)Main interest on meteorological data
CORIOLIS collect data from french research vessels (objective is to enlarge to european vessels)
oceanographic data (SS-SSS) and meteorological dataMain interest on oceanographic data
– => data exchange between the 2 projects– => an pilot experience could be started on a SAMOS research
vessel and on Atalante
– => Coriolis ‘s Interest is on getting new data, receiving feedback on meteorological data quality
– => Gosud interest is obvioulsly to have access to new data
Meteorological are available for about
half of these locations

Coriolis has no experience on QC such data and it is not our 1st objective to process them but they are available.Some of these parameters are transmitted on the GTS

Directions for potential collaboration (3/5)
Access to new sources of data (2/2)Coriolis is involved in the OceanSites project as a GDACOceanSites relates to Open Ocean moorings and long time series and monitoringThey are regular ship cruises planned for moorings maintenanceAccess to data collected by the vessels when they cruise to the moorings could also be an interesting way to investigate for potential collaborationCruises data are full part of the OceanSites Projecthttp://www.oceansites.org/

Directions for potential collaboration (4/5)
Share the data and distribute them (1/2)As the objectives of the 2 projects are quite different, it seems reasonable that:
Meteorological data go to SAMOSSurface ocean data go to GOSUD
The issue: to ensure that meteorological data and ocean data that are transmitted together, then splitted can be reconnected unequivocally
Proposals:We have to define a common agreed unique tag based on the data (as it is already done within GTSPP) or based on the files transmitted (could assign a ship day tag: WMO/date) Data could be shared between the 2 projects through 2 DODS Servers
– GOSUD data available on a DODS server as well as all the data hosted by Coriolis
– http://www.ifremer.fr/cgi-bin/nph-dods/data/in-situ
In this scheme the GOSUD and SAMOS sites are not mirror sites. Is there a need for a final archiving centre or at least a common access to the data. To be also defined

Directions for potential collaboration (5/5)
Share the data and distribute them (2/2)Coriolis has an experience on ocean data routine insertion on the GTS (Global Transmission NetWork). If we plan to receive the ocean data from SAMOS, Coriolis propose to do that for SAMOS data (if not yet done)

Summarizing
Share the data between our 2 projects seems to be the 1st obvious step: Meteorological data « against » Ocean data
Find an easy way to access collocated meteo and ocean data
Define a data structure for thatWhich may include a common format or at least a compatible format
As a conclusion for a SAMOS / CORIOLIS collaborationRoutinely collecting data on research vessels is very valuable because
Ships tracks are far from merchant routes
Data are of high quality (because of being acquired by specialised staff)
Sharing those data is important and using them as much as it is possible is also important. Feedback to the data originators must be done each time it is possible
Another message : Coriolis is open to a collaboration for a centralised in situ ocean data access for satellite validation purposes
