International Frameworks working on EOVs and ECVs

ObsSea4Clim interacts with a number of initiatives to gather expertise from the global and European climate observation space on essential ocean variables and essential climate variables. ObsSea4Clim goal is to build a Stakeholder Reference Group from the kick-start of the project: the role of this Group is to validate assumptions early on, provide requirements, and feedback on execution and implementation of the project’s solutions. The initiatives we connect to are the following.

World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) and its components: The WMO Integrated Global Observing System (WIGOS) Global Climate Observing System (GCOS)

World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) and its Safe Landing Climates, Sea Level Rise scientific theme
