The Partnership for Observation of the Global Ocean (POGO) was founded in 1999 by directors of oceanographic institutions around the world as a forum to promote and advance the observation of the global ocean. POGO is a UK-registered charity with member institutions from around the world, and works closely with other international and regional programmes and organisations.
POGO seeks to expand international support for ocean observing, through innovation of the ocean observing system, capacity development and outreach/advocacy.

Organised by the National Institute of Aquatic Resources (DTU-Aqua), the DANA BITS voyage covers the central Baltic Sea and constitutes the Danish contribution to the “Baltic International Trawl Survey” (BITS).
In this cruise, deep-stratified demersal trawls for fish stocks are paired with hydrographic and physico-chemical (temperature, salinity and oxygen content) measurements.
The database forms the basis for important data which is included in analyzes of fish stocks in the Baltic Sea.
