Animal Borne Ocean Sensors – AniBOS – An Essential Component of the Global Ocean Observing System

Marine animals equipped with biological and physical electronic sensors have produced long-term data streams on key marine environmental variables, hydrography, animal behavior and ecology. These data are an essential component of the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS). The Animal Borne Ocean Sensors (AniBOS) network aims to coordinate the long-term collection and delivery of marine data streams, providing a complementary capability to other GOOS networks that monitor Essential Ocean Variables (EOVs), essential climate variables (ECVs) and essential biodiversity variables (EBVs). AniBOS augments observations of temperature and salinity within the upper ocean, in areas that are under-sampled, providing information that is urgently needed for an improved understanding of climate and ocean variability and for forecasting. Additionally, measurements of chlorophyll fluorescence and dissolved oxygen concentrations are emerging. The observations AniBOS provides are used widely across the research, modeling and operational oceanographic communities. High latitude, shallow coastal shelves and tropical seas have historically been sampled poorly with traditional observing platforms for many reasons including sea ice presence, limited satellite coverage and logistical costs. Animal-borne sensors are helping to fill that gap by collecting and transmitting in near real time an average of 500 temperature-salinity-depth profiles per animal annually and, when instruments are recovered (∼30% of instruments deployed annually, n = 103 ± 34), up to 1,000 profiles per month in these regions. Increased observations from under-sampled regions greatly improve the accuracy and confidence in estimates of ocean state and improve studies of climate variability by delivering data that refine climate prediction estimates at regional and global scales. The GOOS Observations Coordination Group (OCG) reviews, advises on and coordinates activities across the global ocean observing networks to strengthen the effective implementation of the system. AniBOS was formally recognized in 2020 as a GOOS network. This improves our ability to observe the ocean’s structure and animals that live in them more comprehensively, concomitantly improving our understanding of global ocean and climate processes for societal benefit consistent with the UN Sustainability Goals 13 and 14: Climate and Life below Water. Working within the GOOS OCG framework ensures that AniBOS is an essential component of an integrated Global Ocean Observing System.

“…The threat of extinction to beloved Southern Resident Killer Whales (SRKW) poses a clear ‘reputational risk’ (Dempsey, 2013, p. 45) to Canada's heavily subsidised shipping industry, thereby pitting ‘Big Oil vs Big Whale’ (see Proctor, 2016; Wladichuk et al, 2018). 9 Researchers and policymakers have noted that the lack of a reliable method for tracking marine animals presents a major barrier to effective marine environmental governance regimes (Apostle & Haward, 2016). The ECHO project, launched in 2014 by ONC with government and industry partners, promises much needed tracking capacities in response to mounting public pressure to protect the Southern Resident Killer Whales 10 .…”

On a drizzly spring day in 2018, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau strolled along the shores of Vancouver Island, filming a video promoting the Oceans Protection Plan, touted by his government as 'the largest investment ever made to protect Canada's coasts and waterways while growing our economy' (Transport Canada, 2020, n.p.). 1 Trudeau was accompanied by Kate Moran, president of a federally funded research institute and non-profit society called Ocean Networks Canada (ONC). In their recorded exchange, Trudeau explained that the Oceans Protection Plan, grounded in science and partnerships with First Nations, is a 'world class' effort to protect the marine environment. In response, Moran assured
