The Consortium for Ocean Leadership (COL) has funding from the Richard Lounsbery Foundation to advance U.S. multi-stakeholder collaboration on ocean sound data, research, and observation. As part of this effort, which will build U.S. engagement and leverage scientific resources and investment in support of the IQOE, COL will document the full landscape of U.S. ocean sound-related programs, task teams, and data sets; foster participation by academic scientists, federal agencies, and industry and conservation stakeholders; provide a forum for U.S. ocean sound‐related discussions and collaborations; and promote the need for a coordinated U.S. ocean sound science program aligned with the goals of IQOE and national priorities.
