16th Session of RA II (Asia) Outcomes Debfriefing D/WDS This presentation relates to Document 4.4(2) which addresses meteorological services for aviation. //Next slide

The meeting in Abu Dhabi from 11-15 February discussed a range of priorities, including: Stronger regional and international cooperation in forecasts and warnings of environmental hazards like sand and dust storms, which affect human health and the economy in many countries in Asia. Sub-regional, regional and global early warning services became a hot issues in the session Dynamic and effective aviation meteorological services for the rapidly increasing aviation sector to improve efficiency and public safety Better weather and climate services in the “Third Pole” Himalayas region, where climate change is causing glacier melt, which will impact water supplies for hundreds of millions of people New partnerships with the evolving private sector, whilst ensuring that national meteorological services remain the authoritative source of weather warnings Stronger marine meteorological services, including better warnings of coastal inundation and storm surges, which are becoming an increasing problem because of increasing climate extremes.

Abdullah Ahmed Al Mandoos, Director of the National Center for Meteorology and Seismology of the United Arab Emirates, which hosted the meeting, was unanimously elected Regional Association President for the next four years. Rishi Ram Sharma, Director-General of Nepal’s Department of Hydrology and Meteorology, is Vice-President.

Two side Meetings “SWFDP” presented by Mr. Yuki Honda, Chair/OPAG-DPFS-CBS on Sunday afternoon, 12 Feb. 2017 after the session. “WMO Inter-regional Meteo Alarm System” presented by Mr. Ivan Caci, P/RA VI, Prof. Michael Staudinger, PR of Austria, and Mr. CM Shun, PR of HK, China, P/CAeM .

Purpose: 1. Share the good practice on early warnings, including Meteo-alarm 2. Encourage Members in RA II to aggregate their MHEWS warnings through CAP exchange through new WMO Inter-regional and Global Meteo Alarm System 3. Further develop the WWIS and SWIC to enable it function as a WMO Inter-regional and Global Meteo Alarm aggregator

Panelists 8: • Ivan Caci, P/RA VI Michel Staudinger, PR of Austria Chi-ming Shun, PR of HK, China Abdulla AL-MANNAI, President of RA II (Qatar) • Ghulam RASUL, PR of Pakistan and vice president of RA II • Hrin Nei THIAM, PR of Myanmar • Rishi Ram SHARMA, PR of Nepal • H.D. Yoo, Principal delegate of Korea

Platform of authoritative weather warnings by Ivan Caci Further development of WWIS and SWIC to accommodate the WMO Global Meteo Alarm functionality by Chi-ming Shun Technical aspects of aggregating warnings under Meteoalarm by Michael Staudinger Comments made by the Panelists: Support from all the panelists to the development of the global meteo alarm system including the strong support form PR of Korea. Single and authorized voice Sovereignty issue on issuing warning and provision of related services color coded standard Sub-regional requirements in RA II, i,.e. Gulf region, SEA region, central Asia region, Collaboration with RIEMS in Northern Indian Ocean etc. Recommendations from Members of RA II: Portal concept Need more background information before any decisions Not to use the term GNAS at current stage

I refer to my intervention this morning on Doc 4 I refer to my intervention this morning on Doc 4.1(2) on public weather services. In Decides (2) of Draft 3 of the abovementioned document, the phrase "and WMO inter-regional early warning system" was proposed to be deleted (which was recommended by JMA). Based on the latest discussions in the Session, it is considered not necessary to delete it. As such, I propose retaining it so that the whole clause will read as: "That Members in RA II be encouraged to use existing tools such as the Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) in the development of impact-based forecast and warning services, and to support the further development of the World Weather Information Service (WWIS) and the Severe Weather Information Centre (SWIC) as sources of authoritative warnings and forecasts and WMO inter-regional early warning system.“ Lee HKO, HK, China The Annex to the draft Decision in Doc 4.4(2) addresses six implementation areas for effective and efficient regional activities in the aeronautical meteorological services domain. In summary, these six implementation areas are: 1) Enhanced SIGMET information through regional cooperation; 2) Compliance with quality management system (QMS) requirements; 3) Compliance with competency and qualification requirements; 4) Planning for the migration to digital meteorological information exchange; 5) Improved awareness the GANP and ASBU and the associated national and regional planning; and 6) Strengthening institutional arrangements and business models, including cost recovery //Next slide
