DOME will build an integrated international network of research platforms, using observational, experimental, modeling, and technological approaches to determine deep ocean microbial diversity, ecosystem processes, and ocean’s carrying capacity to sustain climate change.
DOME 将建立一个综合的国际研究平台网络，利用观测、实验、建模和技术方法来确定深海微生物多样性、生态系统过程和海洋承受气候变化的能力。
DOME will (1) co-design and co-develop transdisciplinary research, using molecular technologies to determine the emergent ecosystem properties of the water column and seafloor sediment; (2) use artificial intelligence and genome-enabled, process-based models for assessment and prediction of current and future ecosystem state in facing global climate change; (3) co-develop research capacity and design programs to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion in research communities; (4) build a planet-scale sample-data platform, OceanMicrobe, to provide equal access to samples, knowledge and data to everyone, supporting the sustainable use of ocean genetic resources, and the implementation of the BBNJ Agreement.
DOME 将：(1) 共同设计和共同开发跨学科研究，利用分子技术确定水体和海底沉积物的生态系统特性；(2) 利用人工智能和基因组支持的基于过程的模型，评估和预测当前和未来生态系统在面对全球气候变化时的状态；(3) 共同开发研究能力和设计计划，以提高研究界的多样性、公平性和包容性；(4) 建立地球尺度的样本数据平台 OceanMicrobe，为每个人提供平等获取样本、知识和数据的机会，支持海洋遗传资源的可持续利用，以及 BBNJ 协议的实施。
