The goal of U.S. Global Ocean Ecosystems Dynamics (GLOBEC) research is to understand the potential impacts of climate change on ocean ecosystems. U.S. GLOBEC has matured into a multi-regional program with ongoing or planned studies in the Georges Bank Northwest Atlantic region, the California Current off Oregon and northern California, the Coastal Gulf of Alaska, and the Southern Ocean. These study sites have been specifically chosen to afford opportunities to examine the potential impacts of climate change on key physical processes affecting recruitment of marine populations. In order to continue these research programs, this grant will provide support for the Coordinating Office for the U.S. GLOBEC Scientific Steering Committee. The national office provides coordination and support for the regional programs, scientific planning and review, and communication. As the program has developed into a functional multi-regional program, the emphasis of the Scientific Steering Committee has shifted from scientific planning for the local field programs to an emphasis on coordination and planning for comparative studies and for integration within and between regional studies. The Coordinating Office will assume data management responsibilities for the U.S. GLOBEC program as a whole. This effort will supplant and expand the role currently played by the Georges Bank Data Management Office. It will ensure standardization of data sources and will provide ready access to all data sets according to the U.S. GLOBEC Data Management Policy. The Coordinating Office will be relocated to Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and will remain in place for the duration of the U.S. GLOBEC Program. The principal advantages of a fixed location for the GLOBEC Coordinating Office at WHOI include greater stability in funding and time horizon for office personnel and ease in establishment and maintenance of a central data hub for each of the U.S. GLOBEC study sites.

美国全球海洋生态系统动力学（GLOBEC）研究的目标是了解气候变化对海洋生态系统的潜在影响。美国 GLOBEC 已发展成为一个多区域计划，正在乔治滩西北大西洋地区、俄勒冈州和加利福尼亚州北部的加利福尼亚洋流、阿拉斯加沿海湾和南大洋进行正在进行或计划的研究。这些研究地点经过专门选择，旨在提供机会来研究气候变化对影响海洋种群补充的关键物理过程的潜在影响。为了继续这些研究项目，这笔赠款将为美国 GLOBEC 科学指导委员会协调办公室提供支持。国家办公室为区域计划、科学规划和审查以及沟通提供协调和支持。随着该计划发展成为一个功能性的多区域计划，科学指导委员会的重点已从当地实地计划的科学规划转向强调比较研究以及区域研究内部和区域之间的整合的协调和规划。协调办公室将承担整个美国 GLOBEC 计划的数据管理职责。这项工作将取代并扩大乔治银行数据管理办公室目前所发挥的作用。它将确保数据源的标准化，并根据美国 GLOBEC 数据管理政策提供对所有数据集的随时访问。协调办公室将迁至伍兹霍尔海洋研究所，并将在美国 GLOBEC 计划期间继续存在。 GLOBEC 协调办公室设在 WHOI 的固定地点的主要优点包括办公室人员的资金和时间范围更加稳定，以及易于为每个美国 GLOBEC 研究中心建立和维护中央数据中心。
