This approach also meet the recent trend of EU and US funding agencies moving towards more openness and more sharing. The analysis and definition of the basic principles and requirements for a shared data policy can be a first step for a long-term transatlantic cooperation and can pave the ground for the data integration on a global scale diminishing significant misalignment in the data issues. Besides, the adoption and implementation of common data standards can facilitate the development of infrastructure and data infrastructures that will be largely interoperable. The international ICT collaborative frame for the interoperability of scientific data and infrastructures has to be leveraged to take advantages of the continuous progresses and specialized skills. Parallel initiatives and projects at global and continental scale have to be exploited with the aim of supporting the on-going networking process of the Ocean Scientists and ICT engineers and specialists European ODIP, EUDAT iCORDI GENESI-DEC, GEOwow G-POD, TATOO and worldwide Research Data Alliance, DAITF( http://www.daitf.ore/ ) to mention some. The present development status of the research infrastructures for ocean observations 001 and EMSO enable, as they are now, to outline data sharing practices and protocols across borders and disciplines although with some limitations. Limiting factors for an easy and extensive data use out of the respective data production frame and user community can be misalignment of vocabularies and ontology, metadata Incompleteness and heterogeneities, non standardized QC/QA practices. These issues shall be the subjects of deepening discussion in CoopEUS to achieve reciprocal understanding and smooth data interoperability and exchange. Our counterplan text fiats that the EU would share all relevant information with the US – solves all their offenseAT: EU Spending DisadThe EU’s economy is set to rise but only further investment in environmental programs can ensure thatEuropean Commission 14, European Commission, Winter of 2014, The European Commision is a subset of the European Union in charge of producing reports on various European activities, “European Economic Forecast,” http://ec.europa.eu/economy_finance/publications/european_economy/2014/pdf/ee2_en.pdf, NN The recovery is broadening. GDP growth in the EU, which has turned positive in the second quarter of last year, is increasingly driven by domestic demand. This year, domestic consumption and investment are set to expand further, reducing the dependency of the recovery on the external sector. Growth has also returned in many of the vulnerable Member States, and growth differentials across EU Member States are expected to narrow. At the same time as we are observing more balanced growth prospects across the EU, the global economy is becoming more differentiated. Among advanced economies, the US has displayed a strong resilience to domestic fiscal shocks and the related uncertainty. Assessing the upswing there as sufficiently robust, the Federal Reserve has initiated the gradual shift towards a less expansionary monetary stance. In turn, the prospect of a gradual normalisation of benchmark interest rates and global liquidity has led international investors to discriminate more strongly among emerging market economies, and capital flows to countries with sizeable external imbalances and domestic weaknesses have dried up. This reallocation of capital flows has led to financial market tensions in mid-2013 and again in early 2014. They are a reminder that the global economy remains vulnerable, even as growth and trade are accelerating. Within the EU economy, welcome recent improvements point to a path towards gradual normalisation. However, the consequences of the crisis are still holding back growth and job creation and could do so for some time. On the one hand, there are positive developments on several fronts. After years of necessary front-loaded fiscal consolidation, the aggregate fiscal stance is now close to neutral, although efforts are still required in a number of Member States. The ECB's comprehensive assessment of the banking sector provides an opportunity to finalise the overdue repair of bank balance sheets that is a precondition for overcoming financial fragmentation in the euro area and for getting credit to support the real economy. There are first signs that recent reforms in a number of Member States start bearing fruit as they facilitate internal and external adjustment and, crucially, improve the prospects for employment growth. On the other hand, as long as debt in several sectors of the economy remains too high, unemployment is at record levels and the adjustment of previous imbalances is incomplete, there is a serious risk of growth remaining stuck in low gear. Indeed, should the impetus for reforms at EU and Member State level falter, we would squander the opportunity to put the EU economy back on a higher growth trajectory. The present very low inflation - well below the ECB definition of price stability - could exacerbate the risk of protracted lacklustre growth if it becomes entrenched. Disinflation may have the positive effect of improving real incomes and supporting demand. However, it also makes the competitiveness adjustment in vulnerable Member States more challenging, as the required negative inflation differential to the rest of the euro area could adversely affect debt dynamics. Going forward, much depends on the stability of inflation expectations for the medium term. Should they shift lower, the corresponding increase of real interest rates and the debt burden would make it harder for growth to accelerate. Making 2014 the first year of a sustained recovery therefore requires continued and determined policy efforts: bold structural reforms in both vulnerable and core countries to tackle slow growth and facilitate rebalancing via demand rotation; full and effective implementation of the Banking Union to overcome financial fragmentation, sever sovereign-bank links and unlock credit in support of the recovery; improvement in the quality of public finances to boost investment and favour job creation. It can be done, provided that policy makers at national and EU level do not mistake the recent signs of improvement as definite normalisation. There is still some sailing to do before we reach harbour.
