| Abstract |
This report presents a summary of the Seventh Session of the NEAR-GOOS Coordinating Committee, which was held in Vladivostok, Russian Federation, 2-4 October 2002. The main objective of the session was to discuss the Second Phase (2002-2007) NEAR-GOOS Strategy Plan. Drawing up the Strategy Plan had been discussed since the previous CC-meeting, and the Chairman and the Technical Secretary brought a tentative outline to this meeting. The Committee members discussed the vision, goal and specific objectives of NEAR-GOOS for this second phase and approved the vision and goal. They considered that the concrete actions for this next phase, e.g. its specific objectives, should be discussed further at the next session. The Session approved the revision of the Terms of Reference of the NEAR-GOOS Coordinating Committee as Resolution SC-WESTPAC-NEAR-GOOS-VII.1, which proclaims the commencement of phase II of the NEAR-GOOS. The Session also discussed the general progress achieved under NEAR-GOOS in each of the countries over the past intersessional period. |
