OOI Community Ambassadors

The OOI Community Ambassador (CA) Program is a community-driven initiative that amplifies the reach, impact, and usability of OOI data by highlighting researchers who derive real value from it. Community Ambassadors are experienced, high-volume OOI data users who support the broader user community. The CA Program offers an organic way to showcase impactful science enabled by OOI data, highlighting researchers whose work demonstrates the value of these data and helping others across the community better understand the breadth and impact of research made possible through OOI resources.
