  1. NOAA National Data Buoy Center Tropical Atmosphere Ocean Program Ocean Climate Observation System Review Thursday, October 28th, 2010 NOAA National Data Buoy Center, Tropical Atmosphere Ocean (TAO) Program, Shannon McArthur, TAO Program Manager

  2. CONTEXT “What impact would a 30% reduction in ship time on the Ka’imimoana have on the tropical Pacific ocean observing system, and what approach should be taken to continue monitoring and delivery of observing system data necessary for essential analysis and forecasting?” -NOAA/CPO’s Climate Observation Division

  3. “What If Scenario” 30% Marine Service Reduction

  4. TAO Experienced 13% Reduction in Ship Time FY07 – FY10

  5. NOAA Resources Reprogrammed (FY09-FY11) to fill NOAA Fleet Allocation Gap: $3,257,185

  6. The Marine Service Acquisition Approach for TAO has Changed $3,257,185 1st Time

  7. "...the crowning achievement of TOGA was the development of the Tropical Atmosphere/Ocean (TAO) array..."EOS Transactions, American Geophysical Union, 78(1), 7 January 1997 Shannon McArthur, PMP NOAA National Data Buoy Center TAO Program Manager TAKE AWAY ---- * 8 Service Missions per FY are needed to sustain 80% performance target * TAO Performance Impact Since FY04 : Loss 8%  10% * 30% reduction in ship time = 5 service missions per FY  55% (+/-10%) Data Availability
