Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joint meteorological and oceanographic (METOC) operations are critical to a commander's awareness of the operational environment and his ability to exploit that awareness to gain an advantage across the range of military operations. METOC forces must work cooperatively within the Department of Defense (DOD) community and across interagency and multinational lines and boundaries to share and obtain information to provide timely, accurate, relevant, and consistent METOC support to the joint force commander (JFC). METOC is a term used to convey all meteorological, oceanographic, and space environmental factors as provided by the Services, support agencies, and other sources. The principles of accuracy, consistency, relevancy, and timeliness are the cornerstone of joint METOC operations. Joint METOC operations focus on two primary functions: characterization of the environment and exploitation of environmental information to gain an operational advantage by integrating this information into the commander's decision-making cycle and command and control systems. By applying the principles of accuracy, consistency, relevancy, and timeliness, METOC forces are better prepared to support planning and decision making. When characterizing the environment, the principles of accuracy and consistency are paramount to collection, analysis, and prediction processes. The guiding principles of relevancy and timeliness are critical in tailoring and integrating METOC products for the commander. METOC operations depend on continuous characterization of the environment. METOC data are collected and then analyzed to develop a coherent depiction of the natural environment, which is used to provide operational battlespace awareness and to predict the future state of the natural environment. The combatant commander (CCDR) is ultimately responsible for the direction of METOC assets within their area of responsibility. The JFC should direct and coordinate the activities of the METOC assets under the JFC's operational control to ensure unity of effort. Each CCDR should designate a senior METOC officer (SMO) to coordinate all METOC operations within the area of responsibility or functional responsibility. During joint operation planning, METOC support includes integrating global, regional, and locally produced METOC products as well as data and products received from supporting agencies and reliable indigenous sources. The SMO incorporates this assessment into a comprehensive METOC support normally begins well prior to force deployment and often ends after redeployment of the joint force is complete. METOC forces, databases, products, and equipment must be responsive to the requirements of the JFC and should be maintained to a degree of readiness that ensures immediate employment capability. The JMCC is the cornerstone of METOC operations support. Under the JMO's guidance, the JMCC combines multiple source METOC information with operational information to generate the joint operations area forecast (JOAF). The JOAF is the official baseline forecast for operational planning and mission execution within the joint operations area. This publication sets forth the joint doctrine for the planning and execution of meteorological and oceanographic operations in support of joint operations throughout the range of military operations.

This book was released on 2014-08-02 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Joint Meteorological and Oceanographic (METOC) Handbook (JMH) serves as a primary reference for the new Joint METOC Officer Course (JMOC). The intention of the JMH is to provide the Joint METOC Officer (JMO), associated METOC staff, and Service and functional component METOC personnel, an easy-to-use reference manual to assist in the planning and execution of METOC support for joint operations. Some information previously included is better found through on-line sources which are more easily updated, and a web-based resources listing is included as an appendix. The JMH describes existing Joint METOC structure, how METOC personnel and organizations are integrated into the combatant command and JTF structures, and what METOC resources are available. Separate chapters cover METOC capabilities and support to operational forces within Service organizational structures. It is important to understand the joint operational planning process and how the METOC officer fits into that process. The duties and responsibilities of the Senior METOC Officer (SMO) and JMO and their interaction during a joint operation are important concepts. The coordination between the JMO and his Service and functional component METOC units is vital to the success of joint METOC operations. The concept of one theater, one forecast, highlighted in Joint Publication 3-59, is the cornerstone of METOC support to a joint operation. Joint METOC personnel should understand the capabilities of Service level METOC equipment and tactical and fixed communication systems for interoperability. The sources of METOC data and available products and services from various METOC production sites and theater level operational commands are useful for any military operation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental information is important for successful planning and execution of naval operations. A thorough understanding of environmental variability greatly increases the likelihood of mission success. To ensure that naval forces have the most up-to-date capabilities, the Office of Naval Research (ONR) has an extensive environmental research program. This research, to be of greatest use to the warfighter, needs to be directed towards assisting and solving battlefield problems. To increase research community understanding of the operational demands placed on naval operators and to facilitate discussion between these two groups, the National Research Council's (NRC) Ocean Studies Board (OSB), working with ONR and the Office of the Oceanographer of the Navy, convened five previous symposia on tactical oceanography. Oceanography and Mine Warfare examines the following issues: (1) how environmental data are used in current mine warfare doctrine, (2) current procedures for in situ collection of data, (3) the present capabilities of the Navy's oceanographic community to provide supporting information for mine warfare operations, and (4) the ability of oceanographic research and technology developments to enhance current mine warfare capabilities. This report primarily concentrates on the importance of oceanographic data for mine countermeasures.

Download or read book Operational Meteorology and Oceanography and Network-Centric Warfare: Implications for the Joint Force Commander written by and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a number of years of exponential growth in the technologies of computing power and global wireless communications, the U.S. Navy has adopted Network Centric Warfare (NCW) as the latest "Revolution in Military Affairs". This concept has the potential for wide application in the joint arena, where the rapid rate of data and information assimilation, fusion, and dissemination offer the Joint Force Commander (JFC) the potential to achieve Dominant Battlespace Awareness. Adapting to a "network-centric" environment should be a key focus of all DOD components, but particularly service organizations, such as meteorology and oceanography (METOC), who will be tasked to support an ambitious charter of network requirements. The components must therefore scrutinize current operations with an eye towards supporting the concept of network nodes, which would act as a control and fusion hubs for the vast amounts of data and information flowing into the network. These nodes would serve as focal pointS for the flow of full spectrum support across the range of warfighters operating in a particular Joint Operating Area (JOA). When applied to the joint arena, the JFC, through the assigned Joint METOC Officer (JMO) should assess the best location and composition of the supporting node, with respect to the nature of the assigned mission and JOA. This paper discusses a number of METOC node options available to the JFC.
