Observations from ships are an essential component of the Global Climate Observing System(GCOS) and complement observations from other marine networks(e. g., Argo, drifting buoys, and moorings). The key challenge is that the surface marine climate record is mainly constructed from observations originally collected for other reasons, typically from weather logs that are part of normal ship activities or to support numerical weather prediction.  2, record 1, English, - meteorological%20log

The bitumen extraction processes initially used by GCOS [Great Canadian Oil Sands] and Syncrude were based on the Hot Water Extraction Method... Oil sands ore is moved from the base mine dump pocket by conveyor and enters large rotating tumblers where the ore is slurried... to condition it for bitumen separation. The aerated slurry from the tumblers discharges into vibrating screens where large materials... are rejected. The slurry is diluted in pump boxes and pumped to the Primary Separation Vessels(PSV), where bitumen rises to the surface as a froth and is skimmed off, while the sand settles to the bottom.  1, record 3, English, - primary%20separation%20vessel

Three global observing systems are currently in the planning and development stage. These are the Global Climate Observing System(GCOS) the Global Ocean Observing System(GOOS), and the Global Terrestrial Observing System(GTOS). Collectively, these systems are called the G3OS. Because of commonalities in the basic needs for collecting and managing both the observations(the data collected by the systems), and information about these observations(such as what insruments were used, observing practices and the quality of the data), the G3OS have agreed to cooperate with a single committee concerned with data and information management. The committee is known as the Joint Data and Information Management Panel(JDIMP).  1, record 10, English, - Joint%20Data%20and%20Information%20Management%20Panel

The CLIVAR Upper Ocean Panel(UOP) met for the first time 18-19 December 1995 at Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The meeting was chaired by Dr Ants Leetmaa; a list of Panel members and invited experts can be found in Appendix A. The main objectives of this meeting were to review the Panel' s terms of reference, define immediate goals, outline a strategy to meet these, and begin to develop a list of scientific topics which the Panel will investigate. The first day was devoted largely to discussions of the terms of reference, relevant national and international planning activities, particularly those related to CLIVAR, WOCE and GCOS/GOOS, and the status of the various upper ocean observing systems in place.  1, record 14, English, - CLIVAR%20Upper%20Ocean%20Panel

The GPCC(Global Precipitation Climatology Centre) is a central element of the Global Precipitation Climatology Project(GPCP) which was established by the WMO/ICSU [World Meteorological Organization/International Council of Scientific Unions] Joint Scientific Committee for the World Climate Research Programme [WCRP] at its Seventh Session(Lisbon, March 1986). The GPCC itself was established in August 1988 at the "Deutscher Wetterdienst"("DWD", National Meteorological Service of Germany) starting with a research and development phase. The GPCC is now going to be operational, and it is operated by the DWD as a contribution to international climate observation and research activities. The GPCC has internationally defined functions. In the future, the GPCC will act as a GCOS [Global Climate Observing System] specified global data centre for precipitation, and in this role, it will continue to participate in the GPCP, as agreed by WCRP, GCOS, and DWD. It also co-operates with WCP-Water, Global Runoff Data Centre(GRDC), UNEP-GRID Programme, and FAO Water-Department.  3, record 16, English, - Global%20Precipitation%20Climatology%20Centre
