DSpace is used for the purpose of archiving and referencing important but unpublished documents related to the ECCO project (and its follow-on projects).

ECCO [ http://www.ecco-group.org/] is a consortium formed by scientists at NASA/JPL, MIT/EAPS and UCSD/SIO under the National Ocean Partnership Program (NOPP). It intends to bring ocean state estimation from its current experimental status to that of a practical and quasi operational tool in support of programs such as GODAE and CLIVAR, for studying large-scale ocean dynamics, designing observational strategies, and examining the ocean's role in climate variability. The main task is to bring together a global GCM with existing global data streams to obtain the best possible estimate of the time evolving ocean circulation and related uncertainties.
