TRANSCRIPT
SCORとは
• SCOR(Scientific Committee on Oceanic Research)は海洋科学のみでなく、水産、海洋工学、社会系も含む
• ICSU(International Council for Science:国際学術連合会議)のもとに置かれている
• SCOR分科会を日本学術会議の中に設立した
• 主たる役割
海洋科学の振興普及と社会貢献の推進
ワーキング・グループ• 50年に及ぶSCORの歴史において、世界の海洋研究をけん引する役割を果たしてきた
• 何をするか
○トピックについて、それまでの成果をまとめる
○今後の展開への示唆を含む視点と情報を提供する
• 毎年2つのWGが採択され、おおよそ5年間活動を続ける
• 日本の研究者が代表を務めたWGはない
コメント・評価
WG 59 (Mathematical Models in Biological Oceanography) and WG 73 (Ecological Theory in Relation to Biological Oceanography)
Regarding the less tangible results of our WG activities, I believe that the most important influence was on JGOFS. All four of the WG's books greatly influenced JGOFS in its strategy for sampling the ocean, since they bear on uncertainty of natural systems in the ocean and the need to link physics and biology in a whole systems approach.

WG 83 (Wave Modelling)The monograph Dynamics and Modeling of Ocean
Waves was widely used as a standard reference work on ocean modeling.
継続中のWGWG 134: The Microbial Carbon Pump in the OceanSummarize representative microbial data on biomass,
production and diversity of functional groupsAssess the available techniques for quantifying microbial
functional groups and demonstrating the bioreactivity of marine DOC
Convene International Workshop(s) and publish a special volume in an internationally recognized peer-reviewed journal
Make recommendations for future research related to the microbial carbon pump in the ocean
継続中のWGWG 136: Climatic Importance of the Greater
Agulhas System (with WCRP and IAPSO)Facilitate collaboration between existing and planned
studies in the greater Agulhas Current systemWrite a review paper that highlights the importance of
the greater Agulhas systemIdentify key components of the circulation which
deserve further study through physical/palaeo observations and/or models, some of which may act as indices/proxies that can help describe the state of the Agulhas system
