1 PALAU COUNTRY REPORT NOAA Natinal Weather Service Weather Service Office - Palau Republic f Palau Jint Meeting f RA II WIGOS Prject and RA V TT-SU Jakarta, Indnesia / 11 Octber 2018 BMKG Headquarter [1] Yur cuntry reprts will be psted n the meeting's web page.
2 Backgrund The Republic f Palau cnsists f eight principal islands and mre than 250 smaller nes lying rughly 500 miles sutheast f the Philippines. The islands f Palau cnstitute part f the Carline Islands chain. Palau is an archipelag f ver 500 islands, part f the Micrnesia regin in the western Pacific Ocean. Krr Island is hme t the frmer capital, als named Krr, and is the islands cmmercial center. The larger Babeldab has the present capital, Ngerulmud, plus muntains and sandy beaches n its east cast. In its nrth, ancient basalt mnliths knwn as Badrulchau lie in grassy fields surrunded by palm trees. Ppulatin: 21,503 (2016) Wrld Bank Official languages: English, Palauan Recgnized reginal languages: Japanese; Snsrlese; Tbian Climate: Pleasantly warm climate year-rund with an annual mean temperature f 82 F (27 C). Rainfall can ccur thrughut the year and the annual average is 150 inches. The average relative humidity is 82% and althugh rain falls mre frequently between July and Octber, there is still much sunshine.
3 Our Missin: Shrt Descriptin f NMHS Activities Prvide weather, water, and climate data, frecasts and warnings fr the prtectin f life and prperty and enhancement f the natinal ecnmy. We build partnerships with state and natinal agencies, law enfrcement, academia, media and the public. We prvide ur partners with weather infrmatin and frecasts t make ur cmmunities increasingly ready, resilient, and respnsive when hazardus weather strikes.

5 Current Observatinal System Overview I. Surface bservatins The synptic surface weather bserving prgram exists t prvide weather data t supprt frecast prgrams. Weather data are encded in a numeric frmat fr internatinal exchange, at the main synptic reprting times f 0300, 0900, 1500 and 2100 UTC. Synptic surface bservatins include, at a minimum, infrmatin n amunt f sky cver, wind, visibility, temperature, pressure and weather. II. Upper-air bservatins The upper-air bserving prgram is dne twice daily at 0000 and 1200 UTC, unless extenuating and justifiable circumstances prevent it. The system utilized is the Transitinal Radisnde Observing System (TROS) with a 403 MHz frequency, t prvide a vertical prfile f pressure, temperature, relative humidity and wind velcity thrugh the use f balln burne radisnde. III. Marine bservatins Palau lacks marine bservatin equipment. There are n cean buys arund Palau. There is a tide gauge in Malakal maintained and perated by University f Hawaii at Mana in clse assciatin with ther agencies, ne being NOAA. Lcally, tide data is used t mnitr earthquake generated tsunami events. Reginally, tide data is used in assimilatin int peratinal mdels, calibratin f satellite altimetry data, prductin f ceanic prducts and research. Palau s cral research centers may have mre cean bserving equipment but it is nt accessible t public users. Frecasters have t result t mdel data t frecast marine cnditins. Surf bservatins are reprted every 0900 and 1500 UTC frm the east and suth side f Palau.
6 Current Observatinal System Overview IV. Aircraft-based bservatins Nt applicable V. Satellite bservatins The NOAA Gegstatinary satellite and the Japan Meterlgical Agency s Satellite Meterlgical Center s HimawariCast Satellite Receptin system with Sataid prgrams are used t bserve and analyze surface and upper air interactins with land and cean, and mnitr weather and climate cnditins. VI. Weather Radar bservatins Nt applicable VII. Other bservatin platfrms Cp statins frm tw ther lcatins bserve and reprt daily minimum and maximum temperatures.

10 Abstract (updates n status and plan f satellite data access, prcessing, applicatin and training) WSO Palau utilizes Japan Meterlgical Agency s (JMA) Satellite Meterlgical Center s HimawariCast Satellite Receptin system with Sataid prgram t bserve and analyze near real time satellite images that are nly 10 minutes behind the actual time. Surf analysis are dne n bth lw and high reslutin images with an verlay f JMA s numerical weather predictin mdels and ASCAT plar rbiting data fr cean surface winds, respectively. This infrmatin is used with varius surces t prduce a lcal frecast. NOAA Gegstatinary satellite data are als used in peratins. Althugh it may be minutes behind, it can be lped faster than HimawariCast. Training is limited t JMA and NOAA prducts. There are user s guide t HimawariCast and sme training at the time f installatin and upgrades. NOAA trainings are limited t Pacific Desk training fr bservers and fully paid schlarship at UH Mana fr Atmspheric Science nminee.
11 Satellite data and prduct requirements, training needs and infrastructure Satellite data and prduct requirements: 10-min multi-spectral imagery fr trpical cyclne frecasting and fr current weather cnditins Training needs: Interpreting varius types f satellite images and cmbining with ther resurces t prvide accurate weather infrmatin and frecasts. Technical infrastructure issues t access and prcess/visualize satellite data: HimawariCast data riginates frm Himawari Satellite t JMA t JMA s cmmunicatin satellite then t WSO Palau. Thus, n internet is needed. Internet fluctuates in Palau, s this is the best surce f satellite infrmatin. If WSO Palau culd be prvided with internet surces f real time data and high reslutin prducts, regardless f cuntry f rigin, it wuld be beneficial t WSO Palau effrts.
