The Joint Strategic Advisory Committee (JSAC) provides guidance for SCCOOS and CeNCOOS (the Central and Northern California Ocean Observing System) operation and planning efforts. The JSAC connects Ocean Observing to stakeholders within the region. Working in partnership with Ocean Observing staff, committee members formulate suggestions for the development of decision-making tools and products and serve as Ocean Observing advocates for public outreach and education efforts.
