1 JCOMM Overview Val Swail Environment and Climate Change Canada JCOMM representative to IOGP Metocean Committee IOGP/JCOMM/WCRP Workshop Our Future Climate Understanding the spread of physical risk for the oil and gas industry September 2018, BP Upstream Learning Centre, Sunbury Upon Thames, UK

2 Outline What is JCOMM, and why is it interested in this workshop? Structure of JCOMM, and high-level objectives Role of JCOMM Climate and climate change related activities of JCOMM

3 What is JCOMM? WMO-IOC Joint Technical Commission for Oceanography and Marine Meteorology JCOMM established in 1999 as a joint technical commission by WMO Congress and IOC Assembly to address: Marine meteorological and ocean observation requirements in support of WMO and IOC applications, and coordination of implementation of ocean observing systems Needs of marine users for data and products Coordinate and optimize the work of WMO and IOC World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO (IOC)

6 Input data systems and data management Generic Information Services Customised Products & Services Societal Benefit Satellite Systems DBCP GLOSS VOT ARGO Ocean-sites Regional OS Met-hydro-ocean Forecasting, data products, climatologies Maritime safety, Disaster risk, Marine pollution

7 #2. Enhance the standardized provision of high accuracy met-ocean data, information, products and marine meteorological and oceanographic services #3. Coordinate the enhancement and long-term maintenance of an integrated global marine meteorological and oceanographic observing and data management system as part of the GOOS, GCOS, WWW, other operational programmes, and other appropriate bodies and or related technical commissions; #4. Manage the selective incorporation of advances in meteorological and oceanographic science and technology; adapt this evolution to the growing needs of the ocean economy and its sustainable development; and work to ensure that all countries have the capacity to benefit from, and contribute to, these advances;

8 JCOMMOPS OPEN GTS The JCOMM intersessional period exemplary success cases Marine Climate Data System Updated best practice manuals Integrated Marine Meteorological and Oceanographic Services within WIS Waves and Coastal Hazards

9 Climate and climate change related activities of JCOMM JCOMM coordinates international activities related to climate (and many other activities), and co-sponsors/organizes workshops to: to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas; to promote cross-cutting, multi-disciplinary, scientific/engineering collaboration and to coordinate ongoing R&D initiatives and discuss priorities for future research and development.
