Abstract

The World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) has been the largest, international oceanographic experiment conducted to date. Its proposal during the mid-1980s was constructed to take into consideration the newly-developed capability for satellites to make near-global measurements of the ocean. In addition, agreements between almost 30 nations resulted in the most comprehensive set of deep-ocean hydrographic measurements so far, together with enhanced global capabilities for monitoring conventional in situ physical and chemical parameters.
