OceanWiki is an encyclopedia of marine biogeochemistry, and consists of three components:

Lexicon

A dictionary with definitions from both experimentalists, observationalists, and modelers.

Data Types

Model Types

Cellular scale

Flux Balance Analysis | Proteome Allocation Models | Particle Simulation | Bio Particle Simulation | Macromolecular Model

Biome scale

Community Flux Balance Analysis | GENOME

Global scale

CMIP | MARBL | Darwin | AWESOME-OCIM | PISCES

Origin Story & Mission

Marine biogeochemistry needs a shared vocabulary between experimentalists and modelers and shared resources to advance the field. This community-driven collection of biogeochemical output began at the BioGeoScapes modelling workshop and the following PRIMO session at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in September 2025. To highlight cross-discipline implications like What data was particularly helpful to inform a model? or How can a model help constrain experimental parameters?, the idea arose to create a Wiki that provided a central repository for basic information related to interdisciplinary biogeochemistry science. This emerged as a way to address needs that have arisen in conversations specifically:

defining key terms used across disciplines
explain types of data generated by different methods, assumptions, and potential biases
describe different types of models, required data inputs, computational demand, and limitations

-Marine biogeochemistry needs a shared vocabulary between experimentalists and modelers for cross-disciplinary work to advance the field. Yet, to integrate disciplines successfully, researchers need to be vocal about discrepancy and uncertainty, and realize caveats of how values are determined. This community-driven collection of biogeochemical output began at the [https://biogeoscapes.org/ BioGeoScapes] modelling workshop and the following [https://www.primoscorwg.org PRIMO] session at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in September 2025. To highlight cross-discipline implications like ''What data was particularly helpful to inform a model?'' or ''How can a model help constrain experimental parameters?'', the idea arose to create a Wiki that provided a central repository for basic information related to interdisciplinary biogeochemistry science. This emerged as a way to address needs that have arisen in conversations specifically:
