    Workshop: Observational campaigns for better weather forecasts
    Oral presentation

    Over the past decade, significant progress has been made in the global ocean observing system (GOOS), which is monitoring much of the upper ocean on a global scale in real time with multiple observing platforms. But observation of air-sea fluxes has been relying on fixed surface moored buoys and research and voluntary ships with limited spatial coverage. As a result, the current GOOS is not...
