Located in the junction of the Eurasia and Philippine Sea plates and in the western boundary of the North Pacific (Fig. 1), Taiwan is beneficial from the biological and non-biological resources in the surrounding seas, and also suffers from typhoons, earthquakes, and global warming from the ocean. In addition to energetic geological activities (Sibuet et al., 2005; among others), the surrounding seas of Taiwan are influenced by the western boundary current of the North Pacific, Kuroshio, westward-propagating mesoscale eddies (e.g., Chelton et al., 2007; Yang et al., 2013; Cheng et al., 2014, 2017; Chang et al., 2015; Jan et al., 2017; Chang et al., 2018) and typhoons (e.g., Jan et al., 2017; Yang et al., 2019), resulting in a sensitive and complicated marine environment. From the management of marine resource and the mitigation of marine disaster points of view, a complete knowledge of oceanography based on comprehensive field observations is the key to the success (e.g., Cheng and Chang, 2018). On the land of Taiwan, we have established complete earthquake monitoring and meteorological observing networks. Comparing with the two networks, similar observations are still meager in the ocean, particularly, east of Taiwan. The long-term

The establishment of a meteorology-ocean observing network is motivated by the long-term lack of a systematic ocean observing network in the sea surrounding Taiwan, and is urgent to improve the infrastructure of fundamental ocean and meteorological research and outposts for disaster mitigation using real-time data transmission technology. We propose a four-year work plan to achieve the objectives of TOPMOON, including supporting ocean-atmosphere scientific research, advancing marine disaster early warning ability, and reducing social impacts from extreme oceanic events. Operational data buoy system, vessel-mounted meteorological radar, real-time data transmission for deep sea instruments, concurrent underwater gliders observation ability, and value-added multi-satellite data will be built along with the project with supports of existing observational resources and technologies from the academic community in Taiwan. Oceanic talent cultivation and connection to the global ocean observing system (GOOS) will be beneficial from the operation of TOPMOON

he associated tasks for achieving these goals comprise the coordination of six principal investigators from National Taiwan University (NTU), National Central University (NCU), and National Taiwan Ocean University (NTOU) being responsible for the deployment, maintenance, and recovery of data buoys, strengthening of ship-based meteorological and wave observations, improvement of marine geophysical measurements, international cooperation of glider observations, and development of underwater acoustic modem for data transmissions and communications (see a conceptual diagram in Fig. 2). The main-project aims to create a platform for these principal investigators to work together and to perform and sharpen their expertise in these different disciplinary. This is also crucial for cultivating seagoing oceanographers of next generation. Doubtlessly, these mission-oriented tasks are fundamental (but not full) components in a meteorology-ocean observing network. The in-situ observations and real-time data transmission proposed by the project are important to improve the national disaster (particularly from the ocean) early warning ability and could be beneficial to the associated disaster mitigation. The observational data will be processed, quality-assured, and value-added in a project data website and in collaboration with Taiwan’s Ocean Data Bank. The field data obtained from TOPMOON at a ship-based long-term observation section across the Kuroshio KTV1 line, a fixed glider observing track, two long-term data buoys NTU2 and Matsu (Fig. 1), fundamental ocean bottom geophysical observations, etc. will be used to suppleme
