Maintaining a U.S. Leadership Position In Worldwide Operational Ocean Observations For Spring IOOS Meeting March 8, 2013 Helmut H. Portmann, Director National Data Buoy Center

NDBC Mission Priorities and Strategic Vision To provide 24/7/365 real-time, end-to-end ocean observation service beginning with the collection of marine atmospheric and oceanographic data and ending with its transmission, quality control and distribution. Move toward improved systems and methods for collecting ocean observations that are more affordable to obtain, deploy, and maintain Mission Priorities Strategic Vision Ensure that the U.S. Remains Second to None in Global Ocean Observations in Support of Forecasts, Warnings, and Planetary Climate Change Monitoring, Understanding, and Mitigation“

Regional Collaborations and Successes Very strong collaboration and communication between IOOS and NDBC “front offices” 24/7 QC, Engineering support, and Data services “help desk” support provided by NDBC Mission Control Center to Regions - Assistance with sensor calibration, meta data, communications - Assistance with server/system/sensor outage or problem troubleshooting Increase of Ocean Obs Data Dissemination to over 13M / YR Successful IOOS QARTOD ( Dissolved O 2 )

Opportunities for Improvement When NDBC is approached about opportunities to deploy specialized or unique ocean observations systems or sensors, achieving a more streamlined process for sharing those opportunities with the Regions Increasing the ingestion of ocean observations from Regions into the Mission Control Center for Q/C and Dissemination by NOAA Increase routine day-to-day operational communications and visibility between Region DMACs and Mission Control Center

Opportunities for Strengthening our Partnership Providing the Regions real-time “presence” in the MCC ( so that U.S. & international visitors see RA presence – not just NDBC operations ) Hosting “guest sensors” on NDBC platforms to benefit Regions - Lightning sensors for NASA/DARPA project - Fish tracking sensor for NOAA NMFS - “Smart Sensor” wireless technology makes it easier to add sensors Offer real-time cameras on buoys to support Region interests Work with Regions to pursue funding/resources to dramatically increase U.S. ocean observations “ I believe we (the Family) have a strong, effective Ocean Obs Capability that Enjoys Strong Support and Advocacy from NWS and NOS Leadership and Provides Significant Value to the U.S.” - HHP

24 / 7 Manned MCC High Bay Fabrication In-Water Testing Paint & Sandblasting Sensor Testing & Cal Electronics Labs Wind Tunnel & Environmental Chambers Machine Shops NDBC Facilities are a Potential Leverage Point Supporting IOOS Regions
