Moncoiffe, BODC on 12 January 2009 The current Terms of Reference of GE-BICH are: (i) To document the systems and taxonomic databases and inventories currently in use in various data centres; (ii) To document the advantages and disadvantages of different methods and practices of compiling, managing and archiving biological and chemical data; (iii) To develop standards and recommended practices for the management and exchange of biological and chemical data, including practices for operational biological data; (iv) To encourage data centres to compile inventories of past and present biological and chemical data holdings; (v) To encourage data holders to contribute data to data centres for the creation of regional and global integrated oceanographic databases incorporating physical, chemical and biological data; (vi) To create and keep updated GE-BICH web portal making all results from the GEs work available to a wider community of data managers and data users; (vii) To contribute results of GE-BICH activity to OceanTeacher making results from the GE and from other programmes available to education of data managers and data users. In addition to removing the direct reference to biodiversity data (i.e. taxonomy), I think we should take this opportunity to make GEBICHs ToR more realistic and make the relation with IODEs NODCs more explicit. For example, to ask the GE to Document and Develop has always sound to me a bit too ambitious considering the low frequency of our meetings (once every 2 years) due to low resources and the busy schedule of the people involved. Also, more directed to NODCs because over the last 2 or 3 years I have been amazed to realise that even big NODCs still do not deal with a large spectrum of biological and chemical data. I think that GEBICH has a role to play in promoting a better integration and in helping NODCs in initiating this process. As a first draft, here are my proposed new ToRs: (i) To promote greater integration of physical, biological, chemical and biogeochemical data in IODEs network of national data centres; (ii) To collate and compile guidelines to help with the integrated management and quality control of physical, biological, chemical and biogeochemical data in IODEs network of national data centres; (iii) To encourage data centres to compile and publish inventories of past and present biological and chemical data holdings, and make data available to recommended global databases and data portals; (iv) To contribute to the international effort in improving standardisation and interoperability by identifying requirements for and co-ordinating the development of standards, controlled vocabularies, and recommended practices for the management and exchange of biological and chemical data, including practices for operational biological data; (v) To encourage data holders to contribute data to data centres for the creation of regional and global integrated oceanographic databases incorporating physical, chemical and biological data; (vi) To create and keep updated GE-BICH web portal making all results from the GEs work available to a wider community of data managers and data users; (vii) To contribute results of GE-BICH activity to OceanTeacher making results from the GE and from other programmes available to education of data managers and data users. Comment: in a way I think this last item can now be removed as it is implicitly covered in ToR (ii) IOC/IODE-BICH-IV/6 page  PAGE 2 IOC/IODE-BICH-IV/6. page  PAGE 1 klvwx  $ B E s ),#h[c}no}~ĵĵĵĵĵĵĵĵĵĵĵĵĵĵĵĵĨ蔊 h(0Jjh(0JUh(hQh(6CJOJQJaJh(6CJOJQJaJhi"h(CJOJQJaJh(CJOJQJaJhch(CJ$OJQJaJhZ(h(CJh$sh(CJ$ h(CJ$hZ(h(CJ$/x G M j , t u j$k}~gd(gd($a$gd(h$sh(CJ$ h(0Jh(jh(0JUh(0JmHnHu gd($a$gd(":p(|.
