Global Perspectives on Observing Ocean Boundary Current Systems
2019
Ocean
boundary currentsystems are key components of the climate system, are home to highly productive ecosystems, and have numerous societal impacts. Establishment of a
global networkof
boundary current
observingsystems is a critical part of ongoing development of the
Global Ocean Observing System. The characteristics of
boundary currentsystems are reviewed, focusing on scientific and societal motivations for sustained
observing.
Techniquescurrently used to
observe
boundary currentsystems are reviewed, followed by a census of the current state of
boundary current
observingsystems globally. Next steps in the development of
boundary current
observingsystems are considered, leading to several specific recommendations.
