CLIVAR Research Challenges
• WCRP Grand Challenges and the role for CLIVAR
• What should they be?
o How do they relate to existing CLIVAR Research
Challenges/Imperatives
o Preliminary discussion at SSG-18; panel input and good
discussions at
CLIVAR SSG-19
o Further community input at Ocean Sciences (Feb 2012, Salt
Lake City)
o US CLIVAR and other National Themes

7th Pacific Panel meeting, 29 April – 01 May 2012 – Noumea, New Caledonia.
Wenju Cai
• Session 5: Interaction with green programmes
• 13:30 hrs - An introduction to IMBER and PICES – Hiroaki Saito• 13:50 hrs -
A proposal for future collaboration between CLIVAR and PICES from a PICES WG (Shoshiro Minobe)
• 14:10 hrs - Western North Pacific Integrated Physical-Biogeochemical Ocean Observation Experiment (INBOX) (Toshio Suga)
• 14:30 hrs - Discussion – Development of collaborative projects between PP/PICES/IMBER
•
Important oceanic physical processes
For the on-going changes of green ocean, a number of physical processes are important:– ocean vertical and horizontal mixing associated
with the mixed layer– horizontal and vertical advection due to sub-
mesoscale and meso-scale phenomena– the transports of jets, striations and currents– water mass formation and ventilation– air-sea interaction over SST fronts and eddies
• Co-sponsored POC Topic Session, PICES-2012:“Challenges in understanding Northern
Hemisphere ocean climate variability and change”
• Joint workshop between the PICES and the CLIVAR Pacific Panel has been proposed by co-chairs of working group 27 to POC.– June 2013 (Li Jiang, Nun Nan province, China)
Pacific Panel: Strengthen links and develop activities with PICES and other “green” programmes
