Ocean State
Track environmental indicators from basin-scale drivers to regional conditions. View large-scale climate patterns, current ocean state, and pressure events affecting North Pacific ecosystems.
↓ Strongly negative through 2024 (Record-low summer values, cool phase conditions)
↑ Positive phase since 2023 (Enhanced central gyre circulation)
↓ Deeper than normal (Enhanced storm activity and mixing)
El Niño influence weakening (Transitioning to neutral conditions)
This interactive platform connects and synthesizes information about changing ocean conditions, key species, and management approaches across the North Pacific. The North Pacific Ocean Knowledge Network is being developed through the Basin-scale Events and Coastal Impacts (BECI) project to transform fragmented research and data into accessible, actionable insights that support climate-informed fisheries management and conservation decisions across jurisdictions.
