Regional Basic Observing Network Concept RA II Expert Group on WIGOS – First Session 31 October – 1 November 2016 WIGOS Workshop for West Asia 2 - 3 November 2016 (Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates) Dr. Igor Zahumensky, WIGOS Project Office, WMO Secretariat

Draft Decision 5.4.1(4)/1 (CBS-16) Several new observing systems have been put in operation by NMHSs around the world since the implementation of the RBSN and RBCN, Data from these observing systems have also proven to be valuable to international partners, where made available;

Draft Decision 5.4.1(4)/1 (CBS-16) An integrated RBON encompassing the current RBSN and RBCN as well as new observation types not currently included in these networks will lead to improved services by delivering more and improved observations to stakeholders, and enable the full benefit of regional observing capabilities to be realized.

Definition of a RBON (2.1) In each WMO Region, and in Antarctica, the RBON consists of surface-based meteorological and related observing stations/platforms; it responds to the collective needs of its Members, allowing them to fulfil their mandates and responsibilities in the provision of products and services. The RBON is established and managed by the respective regional associations.

Definition of a RBON (2.1) The RBON constitutes a selected subset of existing observing systems within WIGOS arising from the Region. The network capabilities will respond to user observational requirements at the national, regional and global levels, identified by the Rolling Review of Requirements (RRR) process.

Definition of a RBON (2.1) The RBON will comply with the Principles for observing network design and planning, paying particular attention to those aspects of the principles as will be regulated in a new section on the RBON in the Manual on WIGOS. (See the Manual on WIGOS (WMO-No. 1160), section 2.2.2 and Appendix 2.1)

Key attributes of RBON (2.2) Requirements for real-time and near-real-time data exchange at the global level; Requirements for regular updates of WIGOS metadata in the Observing Systems Capability Analysis and Review tool (OSCAR); Requirements for data exchange in defined WMO formats; Commitment to operate and maintain the station/platform in the RBON for a minimum of four (4) years; (see more attributes in 2.2)

RBON stations selection process (2.3) The regional association (RA) will prioritize the WMO application areas relevant to its Region; The stations/platforms will be selected so that the RBON observations together with other sources of observations available regionally, including satellite observations, allow horizontal resolution requirements as recorded in OSCAR are met at least at the threshold level; (see more criteria in 2.3) Stations/platforms …

RBON stations selection criteria (2.4) Stations/platforms will be capable of exchanging data in real-time or near-real-time on a global level; Stations/platforms will be capable of exchanging data in the WMO data representation formats Stations/platforms recorded in OSCAR will be considered; Stations/platforms will have a commitment to operate for a minimum of four (4) years; (see more criteria in 2.4) Stations/platforms …

Monitoring of RBON RBON will be monitored against the requirements on a regular basis by one or more recognized global/regional centres, which will identify non-conforming stations/platforms; Members will respond to any incident management finding within a defined and agreed time frame appropriate to regional capabilities and expectations.

Management of RBON The Regional Group will regularly analyse monitoring reports and assist those Members whose stations/platforms do not conform with the regional quality assessment; Members will inform the Regional Group on action taken to address long-term deficiencies vis-à-vis regional monitoring findings;

Management of RBON Stations/platforms that, in the long-term, do not conform with the defined Regional WIGOS quality standards will be proposed for removal from the RBON and the relevant Members consulted;

Management of RBON In the intersessional period, minor changes in RBON can be authorized by the president of the RA based on the request of the corresponding Permanent Representative if supported by the relevant Regional Group; Identified gaps in the RBON observing capabilities will be documented and submitted to the RA session and an action plan will be proposed on how to fill the gaps.

Possible candidate stations for a RBON The stations/platforms currently comprising the RBSN and RBCN are the primary candidates for the RBON, and are expected to constitute the backbone of the RBON. Those will be supplemented by other types of stations/platforms, such as weather radars, aircraft-based meteorological stations, wind profilers, lightning detection systems, voluntary observing ships and buoys (not necessarily be operated only by NMHSs).
