MMO Series, 04. Maritime Forecasting, Meteorology and WMO: History and Evolution
Maritime Forecasting, Meteorology and WMO: History and Evolution traces the history of marine meteorology. In particular, it looks at the introduction of “maritime safety information”, the establishment of METAREAs globally, the development of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Worldwide Met-Ocean Information and Warning Service and their place in the IMO Global Maritime Distress and Safety System.

Maritime Forecasting, Meteorology and WMO: History and Evolution traces the history of marine meteorology. In particular, it looks at the introduction of “maritime safety information”, the establishment of METAREAs globally, the development of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Worldwide Met-Ocean Information and Warning Service and their place in the IMO Global Maritime Distress and Safety System.
The International Maritime Conference in Brussels in 1853 resulted in initial steps for standardization in the making and recording of weather and ocean observations, and also led to the First International Meteorological Congress in Vienna in 1873. This Congress ultimately led to establishment of the International Meteorological Organization – the forerunner of WMO.
This paper acknowledges and builds on several WMO Bulletin articles (Hontarrède, 1998, No. 47(1); Shearman, 2003, No. 52(1); Savina, 2006, No. 55(2); Dexter and Parker, 2009, No. 58(2)), emphasizing significant progress in meteorological maritime safety distribution since then.Collection(s) and Series: WMO MMO Series- No. 04

DBCP Technical Document, 42. sea surface salinity quality control processes for potential use on data buoy observations
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) - WMO, 2011This document will aim to provide processes and approaches to real-time and delayed mode quality control of Sea Surface Salinity data, for review by the DBCP community. This document aims to bring together the best practice and suggested approaches to quality controlling salinity data from various programmes and for several different types of observing platforms. Once the DBCP has ascertained which processes apply to drifting and moored buoys, the appropriate tests and procedures can be added to DBCP Technical documents which already exist.

World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) - WMO, 2005The original Argos processing system was designed and implemented primarily to support the Global Weather Experiment in 1978/79. The processing requirement for the Global Telecommunication System (GTS) of WMO was intended to facilitate rapid global dissemination of data in standard format from the observation platforms (initially drifting buoys and constant level balloons) to the responsible research centres evaluating the observing systems. By the end of the 1980's, however, the diversity of users had expanded dramatically and it was apparent that the overall processing system was not well ma ...

In 1993 the governing bodies of IOC and WMO agreed to change the name of the panel to Data Buoy Co-operation Panel (DBCP) and to slightly modify its terms of reference, so that the panel might also provide any international co-ordination required for moored buoy programmes supporting major WMO and IOC programmes (IOC Resolution XVII-6 and WMO Resolution 9 (EC-XLV)).
