TRICUSO lead coordinator Richard Sanders (NORCE) is joining the WMO Global Greenhouse Gas Watch (G3W) task force in his role as Director, ICOS Ocean Thematic Centre. This presents a great opportunity to ensure stronger links and synergies toward TRICUSO’s goal to innovate the Southern Ocean observation value chain in support of delivering quality data to the WMOG3W.
Composed of representatives of all WMO Regions with technical expertise in ground-based, satellite and ocean observations and networks, the Task Teams are planning the eventual implementation of G3W. Richard’s participation in the Task Teams, together with Alex Vermeulen as Director, ICOS Carbon Portal, ensures that ICOS data and expertise will directly contribute to the formation of G3W.
The Task Teams’ work is already underway, with a G3W Global Data Providers Workshop taking place in Geneva, Switzerland, 5-7 March 2025.
