Global Ocean Oxygen Network on World Ocean Day 2024

"In 2024, the Global Ocean Oxygen Network (GO2NE), an IOC-UNESCO working group under the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development, is again planning to mark World Ocean Day (WOD) on June 8th by working together with institutions to hold a series of in-person and virtual outreach activities. Just as last year, the GO2NE reaching out to identify suitable institutions where these activities could take place, with the aim of supporting the delivery of informative events to advance knowledge on the risks and impacts of deoxygenation in the marine environment.

In 2023, partners across the globe organised in-person, interactive, and virtual science communication events. GO2NE hopes to further promote more events that may already be in the planning stages and to create opportunities to integrate ocean oxygen in planned and new outreach activities.

If you are already involved in a WOD event this year or know of a planned WOD event near you, please let us know. Suggestions of organisations who may be interested to host an event or integrate ocean oxygen in their event, as well as suggestions for potential expert participation in activities around the Day, are very welcome. The short form linked at the end of this page has been created to collect your suggestions and inputs. Your time is very much appreciated!

The GO2NE Secretariat looks forward to supporting the coordination and organisation of efforts to raise awareness of ocean deoxygenation around World Ocean Day and to share opportunities to engage in the hosting and attendance of events."

Title: "Microbially-Driven Shifts in Marine Nutrient Cycling in Response to Ocean Deoxygenation and Climate Change"

Speaker: Julia Huggins

Event Date: Tuesday, 5 December 2023, 12:00 - 13:00 h EST

"The oceans are currently losing dissolved oxygen (O2) as a result of climate change and human activity, which may have dramatic effects on biodiversity and global climate feedbacks. As O2 is depleted to near-anoxia in pelagic marine environments, microorganisms shift from aerobic respiration to anaerobic nitrogen-based metabolisms. Most conceptual and numerical models assume this shift will lead to nitrogen loss, but it can also lead to nitrogen retention depending on which microbial metabolism(s) engage. The controls regulating the relative activity and variability of these metabolisms remain uncertain, however, and this confounds our efforts to predict how the marine nitrogen cycle responds to deoxygenation and impacts other marine biogeochemical cycles. I conduct experiments with live marine microbial communities to measure how different nitrogen-based microbial metabolisms are regulated in the transition from oxic to anoxic conditions. I use a combination of stable nitrogen isotopes (15N) and bioinformatics technologies to increase our knowledge of how competing microbial metabolisms are regulated under variable environmental conditions and unstable resource availability. My work has implications for our biogeochemical models that predict ocean deoxygenation and related climate feedbacks."

"On behalf of the 'Global Ocean Oxygen Database and Atlas’ steering committee we are very happy to share a short survey (10 questions, less than 10 minutes).

Ocean oxygen data are a critical part to understand our ocean today and in the future. However, currently there is no common entry point to obtain ocean oxygen data of known quality from the open and coastal ocean, measured from Eulerian and Lagrangian platforms. Within the Ocean Decade Programme 'Global Ocean Oxygen Decade' (GOOD) an effort called 'Global Ocean Oxygen Database and ATlas' (GO2DAT) is trying to change this.

This survey is the first step to implement GO2DAT. We count on your cooperation to identify who, where and how ocean oxygen is measured, what type of quality checks and flags are applied. This information will be indispensable to have ocean oxygen data complying with the FAIR and CARE principles.

Please submit your response by 30 June 2023."

ASLO Aquatic Sciences Meeting 2023: 4–9 June 2023 in Palma de Mallorca, Spain

Resilience and Recovery in Aquatic Systems

"Concepts of resilience and recovery do not only apply to aquatic ecosystems but also to societies when faced with disruptions and crises. Past events have shown that adaptability and decisiveness are important keys to resilience and recovery. Disruptions are opportune moments for setting up strategies for management and recovery. Faced with the COVID-19 pandemic, ASLO meetings have adapted by transforming the ASM 2021 Palma meeting to virtual with a positive attitude that in 2023 we will recover and meet in-person. Positivity is also an important factor.  We do not dwell on problems, but we try to look for solutions and get united for whatever crisis we face.  
We will incorporate the theme of resilience and recovery in aquatic systems into the plenary sessions and encourage submissions that examine these topics and invite you to contribute special sessions on topics relevant to freshwater and marine ecosystems."

NOAA and its partners will report on their recent research cruise to measure the extent of the hypoxic or “dead zone” in the Gulf of Mexico during a media teleconference on Tue., Aug. 4 at 11:00 a.m. EDT.

In June, NOAA scientists forecasted this summer’s dead zone – an area of low to no oxygen that can kill fish and other marine life – to be approximately 6,700 square miles. That is larger than the long-term average measured size of 5,387 square miles, but substantially less than the record of 8,776 square miles set in 2017.

"The IOC-Unesco Global Ocean Oxygen Network (GO2NE)
Since about 1960, ocean deoxygenation is occurring in the coastal and global ocean and is expected to worsen in a warming world with consequences on living organisms and on regional and global budgets of essential elements. Better understanding of the deoxygenation process can be achieved by access to accurate observations and to furthering the reliability and coupling capabilities of physical, biogeochemical, plankton and benthic foodweb, and upper trophic level models. Rapid advancement is being made in each of the modeling types, as well as in how best to couple them, in order to generate "climate to fish" models (e.g. Rose et al. 2010) that include oxygen effects.  [...]"

The distribution of oxygen in the ocean is controlled by physical, biogeochemical and biological processes. Both the supply and consumption of oxygen are sensitive to climate change in ways that are not fully understood.

Recent observations suggest that the oxygen content of the ocean is declining (ocean de­oxy­genation) and that oxygen minimum zones and coastal hypoxia sites are expanding with tremendous effects on the ocean’s ecosystems and living organisms.

This conference will:

• focus on the past, present and future state of oxygen in the ocean on global, regional and local scales
• nalyse mechanisms and feedbacks critical to identify natural and anthropogenic causes of oxygen variability
• determine impacts on biogeochemical cycles and ecosystems

The call for submission opens December 2017.
