About GO-SEE
Planktonic ecosystem modeling at the planetary scale
The GO-SEE program is developed and coordinated by the Fédération de Récherche Tara Océans of the CNRS, together with the Tara Oceans consortium, led by EMBL, and the Tara Ocean Foundation.
GO-SEE –Global Ocean Systems Ecology & Evolution– is a 10-year initiative building upon Tara Oceans know-how, data, and knowledge to understand, for the first time, the structure and dynamics of a planetary ecosystem and integrate it into models of Earth’s biogeochemical cycles and climate.
Project deliverables
Goals
Ecosystemic model
The first comprehensive and multi-disciplinary model of an entire ecosystem, enabling the integration of biological data in climate and Earth system models
Sustainable governance
A multi-disciplinary network to empower and bring interested parties together, towards a more sustainable governance for the oceans.
Biodiversity assessments
GO-SEE will contribute to a future multidisciplinary observation of ocean biodiversity.
Prediction tools for fish stocks
GO-SEE will boost the integration of data from ocean microbiomes and plankton networks into current models.
What we want to do
Socio-political objectives
Socio-political objectives
GO-SEE will provide decision-makers with crucial information for infrastructure and business management in the current context of climatic and environmental uncertainties.
International cooperation and capacity building
We aim to develop international cooperation in sciences related to ocean ecosystems.
Science and Education
The GO-SEE program and the Tara Foundation are ideal partners for educational infrastructures.
