GOSIC provides access to data, metadata and information, and overviews of the structure and programs, for the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS), the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS), and the Global Terrestrial Observing System (GTOS). Some needs of the GCOS, GOOS, and GTOS are provided by partner observing programs such as the Global Atmosphere Watch (GAW), the World Weather Watch (WWW), and the Joint Commission on Oceanography and Marine Meteorology (JCOMM). GOSIC provides access to data and information of these partner programs, but not always to the same level of detail. |
