Need for meteorological and oceanographical data and products for regional safety on Adriatic Sea Area for:

• SEARCH AND RESCUE OPERATIONS (SAR)

• MARITIME OPERATIONAL SERVICES

• POLLUTION PREVENTION AND COMBATTING

• SOLAS- Safety of Life at Seas Convention products

• NON-SOLAS VESSELS NAUTICAL TOURISM (MEETING THE NEEDS)• Dissemination of Meteorological Forecasts and Warnings for the High Seas under the Global Maritime

Distress and Safety System (GMDSS). applies also to ships below 150 gross tonnage on any voyage and to cargo ships less than 500 gross tonnage on international voyages and to fishing vessels

• SHARING “INTELIGENT “DATA AND EFFECTIVE DISSEMINATION

• IMPROVING INTEGRATED “picture” APPROACH

WMO Marine Meteorology & Oceanography: Objective and Scope

• To enhance the provision of marine meteorological and oceanographic services by Members– Producing operational marine/oceanographic forecasting – Providing warning services– Delivering marine climate products

• To coordinate, develop, and recommend standards and procedures for a fully integrated marine observing, data management and services system, in responding to the evolving needs of all users– Safety at sea and in coastal area as priority– Consider emerging requirements for other applications such as

sustainable coastal area management, disaster risk reduction, and climate services for ocean-based economic, commercial and industrial activities

– support climate research, detection and prediction of climate variability
