State of the oceans and the atmosphere

JCOMM is the Joint Technical Commission for Oceanography and Marine Meteorology of the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) and the World Meterological Organization (WMO). Its Products Bulletin (J-EPB) allows access to global datasets from the world's oceans and atmosphere. J-EPB is implemented at the International Research Institute for Climate Prediction at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO). The format of the on-line global datasets is standardized in such a way that monitoring products can be compared for decision making. The Internet addresses of the different analysts and national services involved in the making of J-EPB are included in order to ease communications between users and servers.
