Crosscutting talking points, CLIMARII

1

• Cross-cutting talking points, CLIMARII
• Data Discovering, to be continued
• identify sources
• find sources
• modernize copies, i.e rescue (scan)
• digitize
• distribute and include with other data
• much is to be gained, many old data exist, we
  should try to get enough for 1750-1850 (and
  onward) climate estimate

2

• Cross-cutting talking points, CLIMARII
• Consistent QC of the data
• take steps to document
• take steps to homogenize methods
• collections added to baseline dataset
• (I-COADS, HadSLP, etc) may have undergone very
  different QC

3

• Cross-cutting talking points, CLIMARII
• Amalgamation of data sources
• how do we make sources more compatible?
• metadata attachment for suggested adjustments,
  e.g. bucket correction from Had, wind adjustment
  from SOC, etc?
• On observations, and/or statistics?
• insure new data are compatible
• Radiative T estimates, doppler wind estimates
• Plan for new metadata?

4

• Cross-cutting talking points, CLIMARII
• How can we help or leverage proxy data for
  climate?
• Help, error adjusted annual fields?
• Leverage, collect or link proxy time series to
  baseline datasets

5

• Cross-cutting talking points, CLIMARII
• Uncertainties - how to get them and use them?
• We are getting there more from experts
• What are the optimal methods for time and
  spatial varying datasets?
• Should we try to include them with the archived
  data?

6

• Cross-cutting talking points, CLIMARII
• Data Provisioning
• Do we have an optimal method to
• Collect
• Prepare
• Provide to the public?
• Observations many sources
• I-COADS
• NODC, others
• Satellite
• Products
• Hadley, SOC, etc
• satellite - JPL, NODC, etc
• Waves
• Models

7

• Cross-cutting talking points, CLIMARII
• Data Provisioning
• Integration of our favorites with others?
• sea level
• currents
• biological
• sediments
• sea ice
• Pull versus push subscription delivery?
• Improved data discovery for data resources
• Not so much for old hands, but new comers.

8

• Cross-cutting talking points, CLIMARII
• odds and ends
• Inclusion of low-lying island and coastal data?
• Part of or associated with baseline datasets
• Suggestion for met. mast placement on new ships?
• Cardone 300 new builds are on order
