Short-Term Processes
Land-Ocean Exchange
Impacts of Climate Change & Human Activity
Impacts of Airborne-Derived Fluxes
Episodic Events & Hazards
1.How do short-term coastal and open ocean processes interact with and influence larger scale physical, biogeochemical and ecosystem dynamics?
2.How are variations in exchanges across the land-ocean interface related to changes within the watershed, and how do such exchanges influence coastal and open ocean biogeochemistry and ecosystem dynamics?
• How are the productivity and biodiversity of coastal ecosystems changing, and how do these changes relate to natural and anthropogenic forcing, including local to regional impacts of climate variability?
• How do airborne-derived fluxes from precipitation, fog and episodic events such as fires, dust storms & volcanoes significantly affect the ecology and biogeochemistry of coastal and open ocean ecosystems?
• How do episodic hazards, contaminant loadings, and alterations of habitats impact the biology and ecology of the coastal zone?

ApproachGEO-CAPE will observe coastal regions at sufficient temporal and spatial scales to resolve near-shore processes, tides, coastal fronts, and eddies, and track carbon pools and pollutants. Two modes of operation: 1. survey mode for evaluation of diurnal to interannual
variability of constituents, rate measurements and hazards ...• U.S. coastal waters• Regions of special interest• All other coastal waters from ~60°N to 60°S
2. targeted, high-frequency sampling for observing episodic events (and support for coastal and deep ocean cruises) ... 10

Future Plans• Continue refinement of sensor requirements with consideration to
optimizing science and technology readiness while minimizing cost• Publish white paper as NASA TM describing and justifying science
& requirements (mid-2012); Oceanography article to follow• Fall 2012 or Spring 2013 community workshop• Continue instrument, pointing line-of-sight & mission design studies
(GOCI experience very useful)• Contribute to international geostationary ocean color missions &
build international cooperation for geostationary and low-earth-orbit constellation• KOSC/KORDI, ESA, ISRO, JAXA, nations of North & South
America, etc.• Collaboration with GOCI and GOCI-2 Teams
19
Future Plans• Decision on hosted payload versus dedicated NASA launch in 2013• Planning Mission Confirmation Review for summer 2013
• GEO-CAPE is presently planned for launch no earlier than 2021, but team is developing hosted payload concepts that could enable earlier launch
