Developing a framework for global ocean indicators: From scientific foundations to policy applications
This paper establishes a scientific foundation for ocean indicators through international and multidisciplinary collaboration, presenting defined criteria and a set of pilot indicators for developing consistent ocean indicators that connect scientific observation with policy action. Animal-borne ocean sensors play a vital role within such frameworks, providing high-resolution, in situ observations from remote and dynamic regions that are otherwise under-sampled.
