PMO Contributions to NOAA’s Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOM L) Presented By: Shaun Dolk Prepared By: Shaun Dolk Francis Bringas Dr. Gustavo Goni PMO Workshop V Stennis, MS 26-28 August, 2014
Overview How PMO’s Contribute to AOML: • AMVER-SEAS – With Guidance from VOS • Install • Troubleshoot • Vessel Recruitment • XBT’s (Uses AMVERAS System) • Argo Floats • Drifting Buoys • Underway Systems • TSG, PCO2, etc. (Uses AMVER-SEAS System) • Port Logistics • Vessel Access • Contact Information PMO Workshop V Stennis, MS 26-28 August, 2014
AMVER-SEAS • Software developed and maintained at AOML • to acquire, transmit, and distribute marine meteorological • and oceanographic observations and AMVER reports. • Contributions from PMO’s for recruitment is crucial • to maintain these observations.
