The Stakeholders Workshop for JCOMM-CHy Coastal Inundation Forecasting Demonstration Project (CIFDP-BSW) was opened at 1000 hours in the conference room of the Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD), Dhaka, Bangladesh, at the kind invitation of BMD. Dr Arjumand Habib, Director of Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD) and the Permanent Representative of Bangladesh to WMO, welcomed all participants from national agencies and the Project Steering Group. In her opening remark, she emphasized the importance of this timely initiative of CIFDP to protect life and property in the coastal zones of Bangladesh, and urged all participants from Bangladesh and from the Project Steering Group to make utmost efforts to achieve the goal in close partnership.
The objectives of workshop included: clearly defining the roles of national stakeholders participating in the project implementation, for a Definitive National Agreement; and,
collecting and review stakeholders’ needs and requirements, for detailed design of the Bangladesh sub-project proposal to funding agencies.
The Stakeholders Workshop involved more than 50 participants including members of the Project Steering Group and other international experts as well as a large number of stakeholder agencies in Bangladesh, including the Bangladesh Meteorological Department (BMD), Bangladesh Water Development Board (BWDB), Cyclone Preparedness Programme (CPP), Disaster Management Bureau (DMB), and Bangladesh Coast Guard (BCG), Regional Integrated Multi-Hazard Early Warning System For Africa and Asia (RIMES), and many others.
All participants, under the guidance of WMO and the Project Steering Group (PSG), actively discuss on the current status of coastal inundation forecasting/warning in Bangladesh, and on the required development and general direction in implementing the CIFDP National Sub-Project in Bangladesh (CIFDP-B). As the final outcome of this workshop, a Definitive National Agreement (DNA) and Terms of Reference for the CIFDP-B National Coordination Team (NCT) were agreed by all participating stakeholders. The Project Steering Group (PSG) and all participants also agreed on the work plan for the first year of the National Sub-project (CIFDP-B).
The Workshop, with satisfaction of all national stakeholders participating in the discussion, closed at 17.00 hours on Thursday 1 December 2011.Collection(s) and Series: Technical publications JCOMM Technical Report- No. 65

JCOMM Technical Report, 64. Coastal inundation forecasting demonstration project - Implementation plan
Coastal disasters are a major threat to the people whose lives and livelihoods depend on safety and socio-economic development in low-lying, highly-populated coastal areas. They include storm surges and wind-induced waves associated with severe cyclones, and their combined effect with river flooding, leading to coastal inundation. Risk management for such coastal disasters represents a great challenge to scientists and policy makers in Meteorology, Hydrology, Oceanography, Emergency Management and Coastal Planning. In particular, recognizing this extreme vulnerability of coastal areas to storm ...

Coastal disasters are a major threat to the people whose lives and livelihoods depend on safety and socio-economic development in low-lying, highly-populated coastal areas. They include storm surges and wind-induced waves associated with severe cyclones, and their combined effect with river flooding, leading to coastal inundation. Risk management for such coastal disasters represents a great challenge to scientists and policy makers in Meteorology, Hydrology, Oceanography, Emergency Management and Coastal Planning. In particular, recognizing this extreme vulnerability of coastal areas to storm surges and coastal inundation/flooding due to Tropical Cyclones (TCs), there is a strong need for the development and implementation of comprehensive forecasting and warning systems, which allow dedicated disaster prevention agencies to safeguard lives and mitigate damages to infrastructure in coastal areas [...]

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.

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 ...

JCOMM Technical Report, 56. JCOMM Expert Team on Sea Ice (ETSI): 3rd Ice Analysts’ Workshop
Ice (ETSI), Dr. Vasily Smolyanitsky (Russian Federation), at 0900 hrs on Tuesday 18 June 2011 at the Danish Meteorological Institute, Copenhagen, Denmark. Dr. Smolyanitsky noted that the Ice Analysts’ Workshops are endorsed by both JCOMM and the International Ice Charting Working Group (IICWG) as being a valuable forum to share knowledge and coordinate ice information services throughout the world. Recognizing the increasing navigation that is taking place in the Arctic, five new METAREAs were created 3 years ago to ensure that Marine Safety Information (MSI) through the Global Global Maritime ...
