Naval Meteorology and Oceanography

The Naval Meteorology and Oceanography National Symposium in Norman, OK focused on the integration of multi-function phased array radar in enhancing naval operations. RDML (sel) David Titley emphasized the role of precise oceanographic data in reducing uncertainty and improving the safety and effectiveness of warfighting operations, including anti-submarine warfare and naval aviation. Key topics included real-time weather impact on mission efficiency and the necessity of partnerships within the DoD and other agencies to maximize the Navy’s $150B investment in maritime capabilities.

  4. Importance of Real Time Weather • From FY90-98, weather related mishaps to the aviation community* were found to have caused: • Produced 100 deaths - 11 fatalities per year • $69 million in damage to aviation forces • A temporal-based weather display would provide an invaluable wartime advantage over the enemy and allow for safer peacetime and wartime operations. • Increased sortie rate • Better training opportunities • US Marine Corps support – Expeditionary Capability • Small footprint • Mobile * Cantu, 2001

  5. At Sea Weather RadarBenefits for the Warfighter • Environmental phenomena: • Precipitation Areas & Intensity • Radial winds • Effects of these phenomena: • Reduced visibility • Turbulence • Wind shear • Hazardous weather in area operationally affects • Carrier positioning • Departure & arrival procedures • Aircraft diversions • Tanker rendezvous • Marshal Increases Situational Awareness, Safetyand Mission Effectiveness

  6. Hazardous Weather Detection and Display Capability (HWDDC) At Sea Wx Radar Operational Concept Tactical Radar Bridge PriFly CATCC/HDC SIPRNET 23TV Extract weather data Display weather returns Distribute displays

  7. Conclusions • Naval Oceanography’s success is inextricably linked to the success of our DoD and Inter-agency partners • NOAA Line Offices • NASA • USAF, National Geospatial Intelligence Agency • The investment in Naval Oceanography protects the Navy’s ~$150B investment in ships, aircraft, submarines and shore installations. • Increased warfighting effectiveness when real-time wx radar data are available in a combat zone
