Notes	The “GOOS Regional Alliances Network Development” (GRAND) is an action in support of international cooperation for research on global change and ecosystems funded by the European Commission 6th Framework Programme. GRAND has extended to the global scene the activity of the EC funded network MAMA – Mediterranean network to Assess and upgrade the Monitoring and forecasting Activity in the basin. The main achievement of GRAND lies on the support and guidance offered to the GOOS Regional Alliances (GRAs) to optimise the performance of coastal operational oceanography using the global products of GOOS.
