Joint WMO/ IOC for Oceanographic and Marine Meteorology (JCOMM). Guide to Storm Surge Forecasting
The National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs) of an increasing number of maritime countries are actively engaged in the provision of storm surge forecast services for a wide range of maritime and coastal activities, in particular for coastal defense, shipping, fisheries, offshore mining, commerce, coastal engineering, construction and recreation. This guide draws attention to vulnerabilities in coastal areas exposed to storm surges by focusing on risk forecasting, in addition to hazard forecasting.
WOCE Atlas volume 2 - Pacific Ocean
WOCE Atlas volume 4 - Indian Ocean : hydrographic atlas
The Hydrographic Programme of the international World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) was a comprehensive global hydrographic survey of physical and chemical properties, of unprecedented scope and quality, and represents the "state of the oceans" during the 1990s.
The "Printed Atlas" is a copy of the published volume and contains full introductory text. The "Digital Atlas" presents the same graphical material, with additional properties and levels, ancillary data sets, and bibliographic material for each of the vertical sections.

Sustainable Development of the World’s Large Marine Ecosystems during Climate Change : A commemorative volume to advance sustainable development on the occasion of the presentation of the 2010 Göteborg Award
Conroy Hector; International Union for Conservation of Nature IUCN; United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) - UNDP, 2011This report features papers that cover a range of key issues, from the impacts of climate change on Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs), to new policy and institutional tools for LME governance, to new policy and institutional tools for LME governance. The UNDP welcomes this volume on the sustainability of the world’s Large Marine Ecosystems as a key contribution to advancing the needed paradigm shift in LME management in a changing climate.
GCOS, 150. Report of the Twelfth Session of the IOC Group of Experts on the Global Sea Level Observing System (GLOSS GE XII)
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP); International Council for Science (ICSU); et al. - UNESCO, 2011The Group of Experts on the Global Sea Level Observing System (GLOSS-GE), at its Twelfth session, evaluated the status of the various GLOSS station networks including data reporting for delayed mode, high frequency, real-time data streams as well as reviewing the status of continuous measurements of vertical land movement near stations in the GLOSS Core Network. The Group reviewed recent studies based on tide gauge observations, sample sea level products and technical developments pertaining to radar gauge calibrations. The draft GLOSS Implementation Plan was reviewed and adopted by the ...
JCOMM Technical Report, 57. Extreme value analysis: wave data
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) - WMO, 2011In this report we begin by describing and discussing approaches that can be used to estimate such return values in Chapter 2. Approaches based on extreme value theory as well as ad hoc methods are considered. We then present in Chapter 3 some worked examples using two time series of significant wave height measurements, one in deep and the other in shallow waters. In Chapter 4 we provide an inventory of software packages available to carry out extreme value analyses. We finish in Chapter 5 with some guidelines / recommendations.
JCOMM Technical Report, 58. Extreme value analysis: still water level
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) - WMO, 2011In this report we begin by describing and discussing approaches based on extreme value theory that can be used to estimate return values of SWL in Chapter 2. We then present in Chapter 3 a worked example using a long-term time series of still water level measurements processed and quality-checked by the Dutch Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management. They are the measurements of the gauge located at Hoek van Holland, The Netherlands (see Figure 3.1), available from 1887 onwards. In Chapter 4 we provide an inventory of software packages available to carry out extreme value analy ...

Regional review: Implementation of the sustainable development strategy for the seas of East Asia (SDS-SEA) 2003-2011
PEMSEA, 2011T he East Asian Seas are a major economic resource for the world’s demand for fishery and aquaculture products, and a natural heritage and biodiversity asset for the people of the region. The East Asian Seas harbour a significant share of the world’s coral reefs and mangroves; it also produces about 40 percent of the world’s fishcatch and more than 80 percent of aquaculture. But, with over 2 billion people living in the region, the human pressure on marine and coastal resources is very high, intensified by the impacts of climate change and severe weather events.
