Ocean Projects in IGBP II post 2009
IMBER at its most fundamental
Interactions, Sensitivities, Feedbacks
IMBER SSC• Julie Hall (Chair), New Zealand• Dennis Hansell (Vice-Chair), USA• Patrick Monfray (Vice-Chair), France• Ann Bucklin, USA• Jay Cullen, Canada• Wilco Hazeleger, Netherlands• David Hutchins, USA• Arne Körtzinger, Germany• Carina Lange, Chile• Jack Middelburg, Netherlands• Coleen Moloney, South Africa• Wajih Naqvi, India• Raymond Pollard, United Kingdom• Hiroaki Saito, Japan• Carol Turley, United Kingdom• Jing Zhang, China

Theme 1Interactions between
biogeochemical cycles and marine
food webs
Theme 1: Interactions between biogeochemical cycles and marine food webs
Issues:
1. Transformation of organic matter in marine food webs
2. Transfers of matter across ocean interfaces
3. End-to-end food webs and material flows (IMBER/GLOBEC)
What are the key marine biogeochemical cycles, ecosystem processes, and their interactions, that will be impacted by Global Change?
Theme 2 Sensitivity to
Global Change
Theme 2: Sensitivity to Global Change
Issues:
1. Impacts of climate-induced changes through physical forcing and variability
2. Effects of increasing anthropogenic CO2 and changing pH on marine biogeochemical cycles, ecosystems and their interactions (IMBER/SOLAS: Joint Implementation plan)
…
What are the responses of key marine biogeochemical cycles, ecosystems and their interactions to global change?
…Issues:
3. Effects of changing supplies of macro- and micronutrients
4. Impacts of harvesting of marine resources on end-to-end food webs and biogeochemical cycles (IMBER/GLOBEC)
Theme 2. Sensitivity to Global Change
Theme 3 Feedbacks to the
Earth System
Theme 3. Feedbacks to the Earth System
Issues:
1. Oceanic storage of anthropogenic CO2
2. Ecosystem feedback on ocean physics and climate
What is the role of ocean biogeochemistry and ecosystems in regulating climate?
Theme 4: Responses of Society
• Plan for Workshop to develop the issues and questions for this theme
• Bring together natural and social sciences communities
What are the relationships between marine biogeochemical cycles, ecosystems, and the human system?

(i) Friends of Argo Task Team - promote the addition of
oxygen sensors to the international ARGO float program
(ii) Broaden the synthesis effort initiated by CARBOOCEAN for the Atlantic Ocean (Iceland, June 28-30, 2006)
Continental Margins Task Team(IMBER/LOICZ)
Open Science Conference in late 2007,

China 5 year funding IMBER/GLOBEC programme. Hosting the Second LME
India Impact of anthropogenic perturbations on oceanographic and atmospheric processes in and around India in context of global change; SIBER workshop in October
Japan IMBER-JAPAN established under the Science Council of Japan (2004-), chaired by H. Saito. North West Pacific cruise has been funded for Summer 2008.
New Zealand Two funded research cruises in permanently oligotrophic regions to north west of New Zealand focused on N cycling in this region
Chile Currently funded COPAS programme is a contribution to IMBER
France Currently funded for three years CYBER programme "CYcles Biogéochimiques, Ecosystèmes et Ressources". (2006-2009)
Netherlands Programme under development with joint IMBER /SOLAS cruise planned
Germany Planning for new programme for 2007
Spain Developing a co-sponsored proposal with The Netherlands for a “Deep-water Oceanography” project. Holding a Spanish IMBER symposium in March 2007.
