Abstract | The Global Ocean Ship-based Hydrographic Investigations Program (GO-SHIP) brings together scientists with interests in physical oceanography, the carbon cycle, marine biogeochemistry and ecosystems, and other users and collectors of ocean interior data to develop a sustained global network of hydrographic sections as part of the Global Ocean / Climate Observing System.
The GO-SHIP Panel was established in 2007 by the IOCCP and CLIVAR to develop a strategy for a sustained global repeat hydrography program as a contribution to the OceanObs09 Conference (September 2009) and to revise the 1994 WOCE hydrographic program manual.
Martin Kramp, technical coordinator of Go-SHIP:
Through the GO-SHIP Committee, and its OceanObs19 contribution at https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmars.2019.00445/full , it was specified that: "GO-SHIP" refers to the global hydrographic observations with modern standards that began with WOCE in the 1990s".
