Call for International Mobilization
The Call for International Mobilization, led by OceanPredict/ForeSea and Mercator Ocean International, aims to advance ocean prediction capabilities in response to societal needs.
Building on the outcomes of the OceanPredict’24 Symposium and aligned with UN Ocean Decade priorities, it aims to engage key international stakeholders to advance ocean observing, modeling, data assimilation, and digital technologies to collectively advancing ocean prediction science for societal benefit.
A first commitment was approved during the UNOC3 in Nice last June (Figure 2) , involving IOC-UNESCO, GOOS, OceanPredict/ForeSea, Mercator Ocean International, space agencies, the European Commission, OceanPrediction Decade Collaborative Center and many other relevant UN Decade programmes. This call for action aims to emphasize the urgent need to advance ocean prediction capabilities to sustainably manage the ocean, protect marine biodiversity and support climate change mitigation and adaptation policies.
