Numerical Weather Prediction for the U.S. Navy,
Abstract:
The Marine Meteorology Division of the Naval Research Laboratory NRL MMD is actively involved in the field of Numerical Weather Prediction NWP to provide continuous weather support to the U. S. Navy for both wartime and peacetime missions. This support extends from the surface of the earth to altitudes exceeding 10 km, and for time scales ranging from a few hours up to 7 days. The NWP products provide valuable information on tactical parameters such as wind speed and direction, temperature, precipitation, and clouds. Analyses and forecasts of these parameters are crucial for the success of many military missions.
