This document outlines objectives from the OceanObs'99 conference and discusses a new sampling strategy presented at the UOT meeting in Melbourne. It emphasizes the need for high-density and frequently repeated observational lines and highlights ongoing efforts by SOOPIP and JCOMM. It reviews the limited real-time data from Indian Ocean tide gauges and proposes a pilot project for storm surge prediction in the Bay of Bengal. Recommendations include the review of prior sea-level recommendations and initiating discussions with IMD to improve implementation and data sharing.

XBT Network • Objectives—see OceanObs99 book • New sampling strategy—UOT meeting Melbourne, 1999 (under OOPC) • High density lines • Frequently repeated lines • Implementation and monitoring • SOOPIP (R. Bailey, Steve Cook) • JCOMM OPS (Etienne Charpentier) • MEDS-real time (Bob Keeley) • Assessment • Recommendation—review implementation of recommendations made in 1999
Sea level • Discussion paper on need for near real time data from Indian Ocean tide gauges • Few Indian Ocean gauges send real time data • Possible pilot project for storm surge prediction for Bay of Bengal rim nations • Link with MILAC (J. Guddal) • Initiate discussion with IMD (India) and follow up at IOGOOS II
