  2. Overview Navy’s Maritime Strategy Navy Oceanography Mission Capabilities Summary

  3. Maritime Strategy “A Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower” • Six key tasks or strategic imperatives: • Regionally concentrated, forward-deployed task forces to limit regional conflict • Deter major power war • Win our Nation’s wars as part of a joint campaign • Contribute to homeland defense in depth • Foster and sustain cooperative relationships with more international partners • Prevent or mitigate disruptions or crises

  4. Maritime Strategy Implications for Naval Oceanography • Warfighting readiness: • Environmental support globally • Leverage R&D initiatives to ensure warfighting benefits • Manage risk and understand uncertainty of predictions • Partnership building • National and international relationships to advance common national interests and global maritime security • Humanitarian assistance and disaster response • Rapid and sustained non-combatant evacuations • Potential impacts of climate change on natural disasters, social instability and regional crises

  5. Mission • Resource, Requirements and Policy Advisor Navy’s Oceanography Program • Oceanography • Meteorology • Hydrography • Geospatial Information and Services • Precise Time and Time Interval, and Astrometry

  9. Summary • Focus Collaboration on the Navy’s Maritime Strategy • Fully Understand the Physical Environment [Hydro-Meteorology] • Collection, Analysis, Prediction, and Exploitation • Synoptic- to Micro- Scale Level Worldwide • Support Joint Military Operations; Coordinate effort; Promote interaction; and Expand cooperation between: • Other Services • Other Federal Agencies • International Partners
