There is no Ocean SBA or ‘theme’ in GEO...
but strategic marine targets for GEOSS Implementation (monitoring, analysis and prediction) occurred in various Societal Benefit Areas and cross-cutting Tasks, for example (from Former Work Plan (2009-2011):
• Architecture: Virtual Constellations• Architecture: Global Ocean Observation System GOOS• Capacity Building: Building Capacity for Operational
Oceanography• Water: Global Water Quality Monitoring• Ecosystems: Regional Networks for Ecosystems• Agriculture: Data Utilization in Fisheries and Aquaculture

Calls for integration of marine monitoring
“What is needed now, that GEOSS will help achieve, is to integrate the outputs from these various marine monitoring and observation efforts into a cohesive ‘system of systems’ which will enable researchers, resource managers and policy makers to rapidly assess what is known about a particular marine region…”
- GEO and Science (2010)Report prepared by the European Space Agency in the framework of the GEO Science and Technology Committee in support of the GEO Task ST-09-01 “Catalyzing Research and Development (R&D) Resources for GEOSS”

Early harvest to prevent high loss –Loss is reduced to PhP50-100M
Feed 90M people
1] Policy encouraging establishment of mariculture but no implementing rules
2] Massive Fish Kill and millions of loss3] Science research, education and capacity building
4] Citizen Monitoring and Disaster Risk Reduction
5] Sustained Response and long-term adaptation
6] NEW Policy
Republic Act 8550 (The Philippine Fisheries Code of 1998) is a legal instrument that encourages and supports the establishment of mariculture facilities in waters of all coastal municipalities .

Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission IOC/UNESCO
• Strengthening scientific knowledge of the ocean and human impact on it: research and observations
• Applying that knowledge for societal benefit: developing early warning, services, assessment, and outreach
• Improving capacity and governance: building institutional capacities for sustainable ocean management and governance

The added value of Blue Planet…
• A platform to demonstrate importance of sustained in situ and satellite observations of marine and freshwater environments, and the value of integrating these with models
• Brings together a wide and diverse community of governmental and academic ocean observers and links them to users
• Includes a dynamic, focused programme in capacity building complemented by a vigorous, global network of former scholars from developing countries
![Page 15: There is no Ocean SBA or ‘theme’ in GEO](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102819/568168aa550346895ddf48b8/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Raises awareness of sustained ocean observations at national policy level, platform for advocacy with a different audience
• Provides flexible tool for spiral development of systems and infrastructure – voluntary nature of GEO
• Potential for integration of earth observations through common approaches, infrastructure, toolkits – not just data
• Need all types of data and information to generate societal benefit
GEO’s added value for Blue Planet community

What next?• Use and develop network of Blue Planet contributing
organizations and projects – vibrant base that needs additional support
• Development of portfolio of project proposals– Advocating for and investing in these organizations /
communities: developing requirements, observations, data and information management, services
– developing synergies between communities and to other GEO initiatives
– creating information for societal benefit– developing capacity – Can GEO be a champion for one/some of these projects?
• Continue advocacy for sustained ocean observing system, data sharing
