OBVI Goals
OBVI advances understanding of ocean carbon cycling and ecosystem resilience across scales—from animal guts to global oceans—through integrated observations, models, and platforms
OBVI Goals
-
Generate a mechanistic understanding of controls on oxygen, carbon, and particle dynamics through co-production of measurements and models
-
Develop an integrated understanding of ocean biogeochemical processes from the open ocean to the coastal margin, using models to link processes and fluxes across marine environments and ecosystems
-
Create a lasting impact on the global ocean science community through strengthening international research networks and knowledge sharing, leveraging new and existing efforts
-
Advance new observation and modeling frameworks and methods of multiscale data-model integration, data synthesis, and model comparison to test ocean biogeochemistry research hypotheses
OBVI Projects
-
