Challenges facing the DBCP Part 1 : Technical challenges
Some technical challenges • Opportunities and optimal strategies for deployments • Enhancement of capabilities of buoy networks • Distribution and management of data, metadata, technical and quality information • Measures against vandalism • New chemical and bio sensors • Sensor validation, standardisation and calibration • New communications techniques and energy sources • Smart platforms
Deployment strategies • Optimal seeding and re-seeding strategies • Network impact optimisation • Impact studies • Impact metrics • Lifetime modelling • Trajectory modelling • Surface current climatologies • Sharing of deployment opportunity info
Enhancement of capabilities of buoy networks • Development of multi-purpose platforms • Measures against vandalism • Improved sensor technology • Accuracy, stability, fouling • New observables • Definition of requirements • Evaluation, standardisation, calibration
Enhancement of capabilities of buoy networks • New communications techniques • New energy sources • Integration with observing networks • Smart platforms • Adaptive sampling • Self configuring: plug and play
Data management • Data distribution • Network architecture; pull or push • Archiving • Operational support • Quality control • Metadata collection and distribution • ……
The picture’s bright, climate’s changing – this is an opportunity for the DBCP, let’s use our walnuts….
