The International Council for Science (ICSU) formed the Special Committee on Oceanic Research (SCOR) in 1957 to help address interdisciplinary science questions related to the ocean. SCOR was the first interdisciplinary body formed by ICSU. SCOR's name was later changed to "Scientific Committee on Oceanic Research" to reflect its more permanent status.

In 1997 acknowledging the need for better ocean observations and ocean forecasts and with the scientific and technical opportunity that readily available satellite data had delivered, the Global Ocean Data Assimilation Experiment (GODAE) was initiated to lead the way in establishing global operational oceanography.

The Ecosystem Studies of Sub-Arctic Seas (ESSAS) Program is a regional program of the Integration of Marine Biogeochemistry and Ecosystem Research (IMBER) project.  Its objectives are to understand how climate change will affect the marine ecosystems of the Sub-Arctic Seas and their sustainability.
