Scientific Steering Group and on the World Meteorological Organization/Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission international Ocean Observing Panel for Climate, the NOAA Climate Observing System Council, and the NOAA Environmental Information Services Working Group. He co-chairs OceanSITES, a program under the international Joint Commission on Oceanography and Marine Meteorology that coordinates sustained time-series observations in the global ocean.

His research group works on topics related to global environmental change, with a focus on the hydrologic cycle, air-sea interactions, tropical ecosystems, and polar biogeochemistry and glacial history. His lab participated in the ANDRILL program as shore-based and field-based scientists exploring the history of Antarctic climate at Windless Bight (McMurdo Ice Shelf Drilling)

with much of the available satellite and in situ observations to produce a best possible estimate of the time-evolving three-dimensional state over the past few decades of the global ocean and seaice cover. ECCO products support global and regional ocean circulation and climate variability research on timescales of days to decades.

Martin Visbeck is head of Research Unit, Physical Oceanography at GEOMAR. His current research is concerned with ocean and climate variability and change, with particular emphasis on the circulation of the subpolar North Atlantic, climate-biogeochemical interactions in the tropical ocean, observations of ocean circulation and mixing using modern robotic platforms including profiling floats and gliders, and development of ocean observatories for long-term observations in the water column.
