Join us November 18 to celebrate 20 years of the OCB community’s advances in science and connection2026 marks 20 years since the OCB Project Office began in 2006 to support science, community, and connection across a globally distributed network of scientists! To celebrate all the accomplishments of the community across these two decades, OCB is convening a one-day virtual symposium on November 18, 2026. The symposium will highlight scientific discoveries, game-changing technologies, and lessons learned from the perspective of OCB community members.
This 20th anniversary online symposium will feature the following four topics, which have seen a lot of growth in OCB, particularly in the last decade:
- Air-Sea Interactions
- Biological Carbon Pump
- Ocean Carbon Removal
- Ocean Metabolism (featuring programmatic developments across GEOTRACES, OCB, and the newly emerging BioGeoSCAPES)
Speakers and panelists will be announced soon.
The November 18 event will start at 11 am (Eastern Standard Time) and run approx. 7 hours with breaks.
Continuing from OCB2025, we highly encourage everyone to create regional gatherings across the US + globe: Spend time with local OCBer’s in your community – a watch party, a hike, happy hour, park picnic? Propose a gathering or see what might be happening in your area
