The editors received 127 letters of interest from the global ocean observing community, and 35 articles were chosen for the supplement. For many of the articles, authors who had never before worked together were asked to collaborate and submit one combined article. The supplement also includes a closing section focused on exciting new ocean observing technologies.
The supplement is edited by Ellen S. Kappel, and guest editors include S. Kim Juniper, Sophie Seeyave, Emily Smith (GOMO Program Manager), and Martin Visbeck. Support is provided by Ocean Networks Canada, the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Global Ocean Monitoring and Observing Program, the international Partnership for Observation of the Global Ocean, and the US Arctic Research Commission for generously supporting publication of this Ocean Observing supplement.
