forms tailored to decision contexts,
informed by and readily understandable
by those interested in using the
information.
Rapidly advancing technology is one
road to reaching that ambition.
Emerging technologies now enable
biomolecular classification of
organisms, tracking of animal migration
and behavior through tagging, acoustics,
imaging, and remote sensing across
previously impossible scales of
geography and time. The resulting
timely, accessible, and accurate
information on ocean life is
fundamental for our social and
economic security at all levels of
governance. It is also fundamental to
maintain international leadership as
needs for food, water, and other
resources continue to grow.
Achieving these goals requires better
coordinating data and information
sharing and resulting actions among
federal agencies, states, tribal
communities, academic, and private
sector initiatives. The Strategy aims to
provide the critical science, data, and
knowledge essential to guide long-term
conservation based on best evidence,
and to make it more accessible to
support a collaborative and inclusive
approach. The Strategy will identify
information users and engage with them
to understand what information they
find useful, and in what forms. The
Strategy will support consistent and
reliable assembly and management of
ocean biodiversity data that is
necessary, but currently lacking, for
ongoing federal activities, such as the
first National Nature Assessment,
Natural Capital Accounting efforts, the
National Strategy for a Sustainable
Ocean Economy, advancing NatureBased Solutions, development of a
National eDNA Strategy, and the Ocean
Climate Action Plan, consistent with
FAIR and CARE principles.
Developing and implementing the
National Ocean Biodiversity Strategy
will advance more cost-effective,
strategic, nimble, and equitable
management of the nation’s living
marine resources and cultural heritage.
Importantly, the Strategy will support
solutions to the intertwined equity crisis
by engaging and supporting Indigenous
Knowledge and prioritizing cross-sector
user needs from local to national levels.
The Strategy also seeks to strengthen
and increase visibility of U.S. leadership
in global initiatives focused on solutions
to the climate and biodiversity crises.
Specifically, the High Level Panel for a
Sustainable Ocean Economy
acknowledged the pressing need for
national contributions to a globally
coordinated effort to collect information

on ocean biodiversity and on extinction
risk, and highlighted the need to
support long-term biodiversity
monitoring. Similarly, U.S. leadership
of a number of programs and activities
within the UN Decade of Ocean Science
for Sustainable Development supports
emerging communities of practice and
the development of harmonized,
standards-based approaches to address
this need directly.
Themes and Questions To Inform the
Development of the Strategy
Respondents may provide information
for one or as many topics below as they
choose. Submissions should clearly
indicate which questions are being
addressed. The Strategy will be
developed by an interagency working
group under SOST that is co-led by the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration, the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration,
and the Bureau of Ocean Energy
Management, in partnership with the
Smithsonian Institution and other
federal agencies. The working group
seeks input from Tribal Nations, local,
State, federal and Territorial
governments, the private sector,
academia, non-governmental
organizations, a wide range of
stakeholders, and the public on highlevel goals and how to achieve them in
the following areas:
Coordination and Priority Setting
• What are the most pressing topics
and considerations for the National
Ocean Biodiversity Strategy to address?
• What actions can federal agencies
take to facilitate the harmonization of
ocean biodiversity investments and
policy to ensure benefits across all
sectors?
Science, Technology, and Information
• What are the priority needs and
most promising approaches in science
and technology to provide useful
information on ocean biodiversity
(species, genetic lineages, habitats,
ecosystems) and the ecosystem
processes and services they support?
• How can we best align the efforts of
knowledge holders with the needs of
knowledge users?
• How can ocean biodiversity data be
made more usable and available? Which
existing mechanisms or repositories
could be leveraged?
Capacity Building and Community
Engagement
• How could public and private
partnerships be developed or enhanced
to explore and characterize ocean life,
which existing partnerships could be

leveraged, and how might opportunities
for participation by diverse parties in
such partnerships be maximized?
• What are the key needs for training
and education to improve broad
knowledge and stewardship of ocean
life?
• How could the public be engaged in
developing and implementing improved
understanding and stewardship of ocean
life?
• Is there anything else you would
like to be considered in the
development of the National Ocean
Biodiversity Strategy?
