Ocean Observatories Initiative OOI Overview May 2015

OOI Overarching Objectives The design requirements of the OOI lead to three essential objectives: • Sustain, for decades, the delivery of multiple streams of ocean data, resolving ocean processes and properties across a range of temporal and spatial scales; • Facilitate the use of the designed capabilities of the OOI for specific at-sea experiments or extension of the temporal and spatial reach of ocean research; • Sustain the expansion capabilities of the observatory as technology evolves and in response to new science questions. 2 OOI Review May 2015

Significant Changes within OOI • January 2014, PMO took over direct management of CI-UCSD work effort due to concerns of inadequate progress towards delivery • February 2014, contracted with Raytheon to develop a rapid prototype, based on their Universal Framework (u. Frame) service oriented architecture used by National Weather Service AWIPS II • June 2014, successful demonstration of u. Frame prototype • July 2014, PMO decided to transition away from software being developed at CI-UCSD due to lack of adequate defect closure rate and concerns of future maintainability • July 2014, Rutgers begins transition to CI Implementing Organization • August 2014, Raytheon under contract for full development of u. Frame with PMO acting as Implementing Organization with transition to Rutgers 5 OOI Review May 2015

Current priorities Manage the close out of Construction accounts across the project, assuring that sufficient funds remain to address the last emerging risks. Must align budget and staffing to only the most essential remaining work. Execute the transition to operations (second builds, first ‘turns’, shift to O&M $$) for all arrays 6 OOI Review May 2015

Deployed Scope of OOI (over 800 instruments distributed over all moorings, benthic packages, seafloor nodes, gliders and AUVs) Global Arrays Coastal Arrays Cabled Arrays Cyberinfrastructure Computing platforms, software applications, storage, and high speed network equipment Cyber Points of Presence (Cyber. Po. Ps) Acquisition Points Distribution Points Integrated Observatory Network – OOI Net Hardware / Software Redundant computing environment Connected by 880 km of seafloor cable, with 10 KW power, internet connectivity between 7 primary nodes, multiple secondary nodes, and all distributed instrumentation 14 OOI Review May 2015 Extensive details about each component can be found on the OOI website (http: //oceanobservatories. org)

Cyber. Infrastructure Highlights • All data from deployed infrastructure is being stored, regardless of OOINet readiness level • OOINet has ingested data from deployed Pioneer moorings and gliders, Papa and Endurance gliders, as well as initial Build 1 B Cabled instruments • Attempted to deliver pre-commissioned data via interim user interface, but resource drain was impacting ability to deliver production OOI Net • Rutgers staff has ramped up and will be ready to assume O&M role 15 OOI Review May 2015

Overall CI Architecture • Flexible network architecture – Decentralized network architecture with 5 P 2 P connected sites (OMCWHOI, OMC-OSU, OMCSIO, RSN, CI-RU) – Independent administrative domains (e. g. , IP space) – Supports both VPN and non-VPN configurations • Security – Short-term: traditional firewall system (iptables) – Long-term: Latest generation firewall appliances to consolidate security layers • External connections – Leverages institutional VPN infrastructure 16 OOI Review May 2015

Technical Issues and Risks for OOI Surface-piercing profiler technology is not as mature as initially expected. Global surface-piercing profiler was descoped and is being replaced by gliders functioning as virtual moorings. Coastal surface-piercing profiler, long-term performance to be assessed. (WHOI – SIO – OSU - OL) Risk: hoped-for advances in vertical resolution of upper-ocean processes (supporting the ‘transformative’ aspect of the OOI) must await further progress by vendors (partially mitigated) Vertical moorings deployed within the cabled array have technical issues to resolve, specific to the deep and shallower profiler. Remaining shallow profiler continues successful testing. Deep profiler issues identified and resolution in progress. Testing in progress. (UW- OL) Risk: hoped-for advances in vertical resolution of upper-ocean processes (supporting the ‘transformative’ aspect of the OOI) must await further progress with technology reliability. (low technical risk, moderate schedule risk) 20 OOI Review May 2015

Technical Issues and Risks for OOI The AUV docking system is scheduled for Spring 2015 deployment within the Pioneer Array. In-water tests demonstrated some success. Docking system complexity and final design changes could lead to a schedule problem. (WHOI - OL) Risk: AUVs may need to be descoped, eliminating the resolution planned to be obtained by the AUVs (high risk). Fuel cell development continues for the surface moorings, but progress has been slower than expected. Unit failed to operate on recent deployment, and was immediately recovered. Failure analysis indicated root cause, but partial redesign requirement for remediation. (WHOI - OL) Risk: Mission duration may be impacted by lack of full power from wind and solar generators for charging AUV batteries – eliminating the resolution planned to be obtained by the AUVs (moderate to high risk). 21 OOI Review May 2015

Budget & Funding Status • MREFC fully funded – NSF has provided the full MREFC funding to Ocean Leadership and OL has distributed to each Implementing Organization • Control Account Closeouts – OL is actively closing out accounts to be prepared for the period of performance completion – Weekly meetings are held to coordinate with all of the finance staff – Closed accounts are flagged in the accounting system to prevent new charges from posting 22 OOI Review May 2015

Summary Program Financials • ARRA fully spent and closed • MREFC remaining to spend is $29. 39 M, of which $7. 28 M is already obligated • The current contingency balance is $2. 9 M. OOI is actively monitoring risks which, if realized will further reduce this figure 23 OOI Review May 2015
