Fifth JCOMM Workshop on Advances in Marine Climatology (CLIMAR-V; 6-8 May 2019), In Situ Marine Wind Workshop (9 May 2019), and Seventh Meeting of the JCOMM Expert Team on Marine Climatology (10 May 2019)
6-10 May 2019, Hamburg Germany
CLIMAR-V Objectives:
CLIMAR-V Sessions:
- To harmonize the flow of oceanographic and marine-meteorological data and metadata, from sensor to products
- To review the needs of the community for marine climate data and integrated products
- To recommend changes or enhancements to observing and data management practices that will benefit the marine climate community
- To encourage submissions to the Dynamic Part of the WMO Guide to the Applications of Marine Climatology
- Session I: Marine climatology - operational and scientific producs and applications
- Session II: From observations to climate services and safety at sea
- Session III: Mulitsector use of marine data
- Session IV: The JCOMM Marine Climate Data System (MCDS)
In Situ Marine Wind Workshop Objectives:
The workshop will focus on wind observations made in-situ on marine platorms (e.g., ships, moorings, rigs, autonomous vessels) and the variety of applications these measurements support in the marine climate community. Relevant topics include:
- The accuracy and quality of wind observations and intercalibration between in-situ and other wind observations (e.g., satellite).
- Wind indices on multiple time scales
- Identifying gaps in characteristics of wind observations associated with various platforms (e.g., ship tracking, national observing practices)
- Rescue of historical wind observations
- Dataset development (Joint session with CLIMAR5)
- Applications of wind observations in marine climatology (Joint session with CLIMAR5).
