SUMMARY

This proceeding summarizes the discussions during the 2020 SCOR Annual

Meeting held virtually

between the 20-22 of October of 2020. Following a decision from the SCOR Executive, this proceeding also compiles all the background information for the meeting, including the proposals for new working groups, the reports from current SCOR working groups, projects, capacity development activities, and the reports of affiliated and partner organizations all of which were traditionally included in the SCOR Annual meeting background book. All of these can also be accessed online through the SCOR website at: https://scor-int.org/events/2020-scor-annual-meeting/. Following this decision, from this year onwards, the SCOR Annual Meeting Background Book, and the SCOR Annual Meeting Proceedings will be merged in one document. The SCOR 2020 Annual Meeting was attended by 121 participants from 34 countries representing all continents. All SCOR Working Groups, research, infrastructural, and affiliated projects, along with

the affiliated and partner organizations reported on their activities. Some of the main highlights of

the SCOR 2020 Annual Meeting include: (1) the approval of a SCOR revised Constitution, (2) the renovation of the SCOR Executive Committee, (3) the incorporation of a new member to SCOR, and (4) the approval of three new Working Groups. Following recommendations from SCOR's parent organization the International Science Council (ISC), the SCOR constitution was revised and updated by a Review Committee composed by Peter Burkill (UK Nominated Member and SCOR Past-President), Bob Duce (USA, SCOR Past-President), Julie Hall (New Zealand Nominated Member and SCOR Past-Secretary), Danielle Su (France / Australia), and

Xiaoxia Sun (China

-Beijing). This revised constitution was unanimously approved by all SCOR nominated members and representative members. The revised constitution can be found at The SCOR Executive Committee (https://scor-int.org/scor/about/officers/) was renovated. Sinjae Yoo (Korea) is the new SCOR President replacing Marie -Alexandrine Sicre who has become Past- President and the co-chair of the IIOE-2 project. Peter Burkill (UK, SCOR Past-President), David Halpern (USA, SCOR Vice-President) and Nuria Casacuberta-Arola (Switzerland, Early Career representative) stepped down from their roles, and three new members were engaged: Stefano

Aliani (Italy) and Bradley Moran (USA) as Vice-Presidents, and Charlotte Laufkoetter (Switzerland) as

the early career co-opted member. A new country, Colombia, joined SCOR through the Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras de Colombia (INVEMAR: http://www.invemar.org.co/). INVEMAR is the Colombian national institute of marine science aimed at conducting scientific research on na tural renewable resources and marine and coastal ecosystems to support policy and management of marine natural resources. INVEMAR is also a Regional Training Center for the Ocean Teacher Global Academy committed to building capacity in the Latin American a nd Caribbean region. The competition among proposals was strong this year, with 10 proposals submitted and three funded. The three proposals approved were: Analysing ocean turbulence observations to quantify mixing (ATOMIX), co-chaired by Cynthia Bluteau (Canada), Ilker Fer (Norway), and Yueng-Djern Lenn (UK) (https://scor- int.org/group/analysing Respiration in the Mesopelagic Ocean (ReMO): Reconciling ecological, biogeochemical and model estimates, co-chaired by Carol Robinson (UK), Iris Kriest (Germany), and Javier Arístegui (Spain) 11 Developing an Observing Air-Sea Interactions Strategy (OASIS), co-chaired by Meghan Cronin (USA) and Sebastiaan Swart (Sweden) (https://scor-int.org/group/developing-an-observing-air-sea- interactions-state-oasis/) SCOR continued to support capacity development activities by sponsoring 5 Visiting Scholars in 2019 and approving 6 for 2020, and by co-sponsoring with POGO 5 POGO-SCOR Visiting Fellows. All the travel of the Visiting Scholars and POG O-SCOR fellows has been postponed until further notice due to COVID-19. The 2021 SCOR meeting is scheduled for the week of 25-29 of October 2021 in Busan, Korea, hosted by the Korean Institute of Science and Technology (KIOST). The 2022 SCOR meeting is scheduled to

take place in Guayaquil, Ecuador, hosted by the Instituto Oceanográfico y Antártico de la Armada del

Ecuador (INOCAR) between September-October.

Narrated presentations reporting on SCOR project and working group activities and progress in 2020 can be found in YouTube (https://youtube.com/channel/UCv-dZLizFYDOC2UTweiWj0Q ) 12

LOGISTICS OF THE SCOR 2020 VIRTUAL MEETING

The SCOR 2020 Annual Meeting was

the first SCOR annual meeting to be held virtually due to the

COVID-19 global pandemic and all the associated travel restrictions. In this new virtual modality, the

time of interaction was reduced from three 8-hour days to three 3-hour connections. This required significant preparation and performing previous actions along with special logistics. The meeting was organized in three sessions, one for each day. On the first day, the agenda topics included the reports from the SCOR President and from the Executive Director, the results of the

2020 election for SCOR Officers, the results of the 2020 selection of Early Career Scientist, the

approval of the revised SCOR constitution and the presentation and discussion of new SCOR working group (WG) proposals. On the second day, the agenda topics included the reporting of all current SCOR working groups, research projects and infrastructural projects. On the third day, the agenda topics included the report of the Ad Hoc Finance Committee, the reports from the affiliated projects and partner organizations, the report on SCOR capacity development activities and setting the venue for the next SCOR annual meeting. In preparation for the virtual meeting, the logistics were organized in the following way: All written reports and documents were available in advance at the SCOR website (https://scor- In preparation for Session 1, SCOR Executive Committee (SCOR EC) monitors for the proposed new WGs produced a 10-15-minute narrated presentation of the WG proposal summarizing the proposal and the recommendations from the reviews. These were available for all the Executive Committee and Nominated Members on-line prior to the meeting for everyone to watch at its own convenient time. In preparation for Session 2, SCOR WGs and project chairs produced a 10-15-minute narrated presentation that was available on-line on the SCOR website prior to the meeting. In preparation for Session 3, representatives of affiliated projects and affiliated/partner organizations were also invited to produce a 10-15-minute presentation to be available on-line prior to the meeting. For the virtual sessions, each of the groups mentioned above (SCOR EC monitors of new WG proposals, current WG and project chairs/representatives and representatives of affiliated organizations, projects, and partner organizations) provided a synthesis of 1-3 slides with the main highlights and the required actions for a maximum of a 5-minute intervention to allow time for discussions. The summary slides for the new WGs included the Terms of Refence, membership and a summary of the reviews/recommendations by the national SCOR committees and affiliated organizations. All the summary slides for each session were compiled by the

SCOR Executive Director in one single

file (one summary file /session) to facilitate the discussions during the virtual sessions and avoiding

the sharing of multiple screens. All participants had to register for the meeting and this gave an indication of how many people would be connecting for each of the sessions, helping to plan the connection platform (e.g.,

GoToMeeting, Zoom).

The sessions were recorded, both in video and audio, and the transcripts of the chat comments were saved to help in the production of the proceedings. The co-chairing and note taking for each of the three sessions involved several members of the SCOR EC. 13

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. Opening remarks and arrangements

Marie Alexandrine Sicre, the SCOR President welcomed the participants and provided an overview of the logistic arrangements. No further additions to the agenda were suggested. Sicre pointed out that all written reports, documents, and narrated presentations from WGs, projects and affiliated organizations were available at the SCOR website (https://scor-int.org/events/2020-scor-annual- meeting/). She thanked the new Executive Director for organizing the virtual meeting. SCOR pays tribute to the life and contributions of members of the oceanographic community who

pass away. Sicre noted those that had died in the past year along with their scientific contributions

and involvement with SCOR. See document: https://scor-int.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Tab-
