Welcome to the new look website of the Pacific Islands Global Ocean Observing System!

Until now the PI-GOOS website comprised of a series of pages under the main SOPAC website (www.sopac.org), SOPAC being the host and an important sponsor of  the PI-GOOS programme.

In 2007 the decision was taken to move the website to a location outside of SOPAC to allow PI-GOOS to operate under its own domain (www.pi-goos.org) and also to bring together the websites of the partner observing programmes operating in the Pacific Islands region, namely the Pacific Islands Global Climate Observing System (PI-GCOS) and the Pacific Hydrological Cycle Observing System (Pacific HYCOS).

The new PI-GOOS website is hosted by the International Pacific Research Center (IPRC) at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Websites for the 3 observing programmes have been developed using the Joomla! open source content management system.

At present the PI-GOOS website is optimised for use with Mozilla Firefox (v3) but adjustments are currently underway to ensure compatibility with other popular browsers.

If you have any comments or suggestions on how the site can be improved, please contact the PI-GOOS Coordinator.
