The World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) is by far the largest, most ambitious oceanographic experiment ever carried out. The WOCE observational program began in 1990, but the origins of WOCE go back to the late 1970s. The experiment has involved the efforts of more than 40 nations over a period of more than 10 years, making use of several different satellites, dozens of ships, and thousands of instruments ... In 1983, the CCCO [Committee on Climatic Change and the Ocean] and the Joint Scientific Committee of the World Climate Research Programme established a Scientific Steering Group (SSG) to design and implement a global scale oceanographic experiment the World Ocean Circulation Experiment. 3, record 6, English, - World%20Ocean%20Circulation%20Experiment
