The Aircraft to Satellite Data Relay(ASDAR) programme is sponsored by an International meteorological group in order to augment the collection of upper air meteorological data, and thereby improve the accuracy of global weather forescasting. It has been developed by Matra Marconi Space, UK in collaboration with the WMO to enable aircraft to generate and transmit real-time meteorological reports via geostationary meteorological satellites for global relay. It is an automated system offering significant advantages, including reduced crew responsibility delays and errors. ASDAR, operating in conjunction with meteorological satellites, has proved to be a versatile tool in obtaining meteorological data automatically from flights over both oceans and continents, especially over areas not serviced by meteorological stations. In addition, during the ascent and descent phases of the aircraft, observations at regular pressure intervals provide a detailed vertical atmospheric temperature profile near the airports. The meteorological data provided by this system has proved to be very useful for improving the weather forecasting service.

WMO Meteorological codes are defined by the World Meteorological Organization in WMO Manual No. 306. The codes are composed of a set of values defined in tables with reference to specific position within strings of information. These defined values make up a code form and binary codes are made up of groups of letters representing meteorological or other geophysical elements. Different code forms are used to represent different types of observations or products. In messages, these groups of letters are transcribed into figures indicating the value of state of the elements described. The National Weather Service and other U.

The importance of meteorology to agriculture, internationally, was probably recognized at least as early as 1735 when the Directors of European meteorological services first met to discuss meteorology on an international scale. The first reference to co-operation between meteorology and agriculture as in correspondence between the International Meteorological Organization(IMO) and certain national institutes of agriculture and forestry, seeking an exchange of meteorological information and data. A formal Commission for Agricultural Meteorology of IMO was appointed in 1913 but a meeting was delayed by the First World War. The Commission was re-constituted in 1919 and held its first meeting at Utrecht, The Netherlands, in 1923. Subsequently it held six additional meetings; the seventh and last being at Toronto in Canada 1947. Policies and programmes of this last meeting of the IMO/CAgM became the foundation of the new CAgM under WMO.

DEF

Meteorological code, approved by the World Meteorological Organization, by which meteorological elements observed at the Earth’s surface at synoptic times are encoded in groups of five figures and transmitted internationally.

CONT

The synoptic code is the WMO standard method for transmitting surface weather information via communications circuits. It is universal in that there are formats for data collected in several units(for wind speed), contains no plain language information(i. e., it is entirely numeric), is always in the same format, etc. There are allowances for each individual country to include national data which are not necessarily of interest to the rest of the world. This code has its own tables, etc., which are for the most part different from those used in the airways code, but is much more systematic...

OBS

The official reference for taking the surface observation for any observer in the United States is the Federal Meteorological Handbook No. 1, published jointly by the US Departments of Commerce (NWS), Transportation (FAA), and Defense (AWS/Navy). The complete synoptic code is described in the Federal Meteorological Handbook No. 2 (same publishers as above).

OBS

Weather observers throughout the world record and report surface weather observations in four different international code forms. The four code forms are: METAR Code; SPECI Code; Land Synoptic Code; and Ship Synoptic Code.

Code météorologique, adopté par l'Organisation météorologique mondiale, selon lequel les éléments météorologiques observés à la surface de la Terre à des heures synoptiques sont mis sous une forme codée par groupes de cinq chiffres et transmis internationalement.

CONT

Le code synoptique. Le code météorologique international FM 12-IX SYNOP est utilisé pour transmettre les observations synoptiques de surface des stations terrestres, observations effectuées de façon manuelle ou automatique. Ce code est appelé FM 13-IX SHIP lorsqu'il est utilisé pour transmettre des observations similaires effectuées à partir d'une station manuelle ou automatique maritime. Le code synoptique normal comprend six groupes numérotés de 0 à 5, chacun d'entre eux composé d'un code de 5 chiffres. La plupart des groupes des sections 0 à 5 commencent par un indicateur numérique et ces indicateurs sont numéroté successivement à l'intérieur de chaque section. Les indicateurs numériques identifient un groupe particulier contenant toujours les mêmes éléments atmosphériques. De ce fait, l'omission qu'elle soit accidentelle ou volontaire de chacun des groupes ne doit pas empêcher l'identification des autres groupes. De toute façon, le code permet l'omission d'un groupe dont les éléments atmosphériques sont absents ou ne peuvent être observés.

A flow forecasting system for the Niger river basin-contributing basin 1. 2 million km2-was funded by WMO. The network comprised 65 stations measuring river level and rainfall, linked by satellite to an international forecasting centre in Niamey and to national forecasting centres in each of the eight participating countries. Each of the stations also transmitted diagnostic data to facilitate preventative maintenance. The network was able to forecast flows up to 3 months in advance, making it a valuable tool for water management and agricultural production.

In this method the cyclone is assumed to consist of an environment, an yewall and an eye. The calculation of the maximum potential intensity requires a vertical sounding of temperature, the surface pressure and the surface air temperature. The soundings used in this study were taken at Isla Socorro, Mexico(latitude 18. 72 N, longitude 110, 95 W, WMO 76723) during the period from 1994-97. This location was chosen because the small size of the island should cause only a minor effect on the sounding and the data should provide a good sample of the thermodynamic state of the atmosphere over the Eastern North Pacific Ocean.

[The] Intersecretariat Committee on Scientific Programmes Relating to Oceanography(ICSPRO)... was established in 1969, independent of the ACC, for the purpose of enlisting and coordinating interagency support for the scientific programmes of the IOC, which was established in 1960. Its mandate and membership is thus more limited than that of the ACC Subcommittee, with a focus on marine scientific research and support services. ICSPRO now meets for one or two days in connection with annual sessions of the ACC Subcommittee and currently its work is focused primarily on developing and coordinating contributions of UN agencies to the 1998 International Year of the Ocean(an initiative of UNESCO and proclaimed in 1994 by the General Assembly) and to "Expo ’98" in Lisbon, an international event entitled "The Oceans : A Heritage for the Future. "Its work thus does not overlap that of the Subcommittee. The members of ICSPRO are the UN(DOALOS), UNESCO(IOC), IMO, WMO, FAO and UNEP.
