7.4.2.1.2 Fleet Numerical Meteorology <strong>and</strong> Oceanography Center<br />
(FLENUMMETOCCEN, FNMOC).<br />
• Organization. Navy-controlled, named organization assigned to the Comm<strong>and</strong>er,<br />
Naval Meteorology <strong>and</strong> Oceanography Comm<strong>and</strong>.<br />
• Mission. Produces the Department of Defense automated numerical meteorological<br />
<strong>and</strong> oceanographic guidance, manned 24 hours/day.<br />
• Products <strong>and</strong> Services. FNMOC <strong>and</strong> the National Center for Environmental Prediction<br />
(NCEP) are the only production centers (i.e., run models to produce global METOC<br />
forecasts) in the USA <strong>and</strong> act as mutual backup. As well as running the Navy’s own<br />
suite of models, FNMOC also provides selected NCEP products along with those<br />
produced by two other global production centers; the European Center (ECMWF) <strong>and</strong><br />
the Japanese Center (JMA). FNMOC has a suite of “state of the art” oceanographic<br />
<strong>and</strong> meteorological models. Products are in the form of satellite images, satellite<br />
derived data (special sensor microwave imager or SSMI), <strong>and</strong> numerical fields, which<br />
users can display using JMV or NITES, or as input into GFMPL or JMCIS to run<br />
tactical decision aids (TDAs). A st<strong>and</strong>ard list of products is updated twice daily with<br />
special high resolution products <strong>and</strong> Data Request Products (DRPs) available on<br />
request.<br />
• St<strong>and</strong>ard Products<br />
- Navy Operational Global Atmospheric Prediction System (NOGAPS)<br />
> NOGAPS 4.0 utilizes 159 spectral waves (82 km resolution) in the horizontal<br />
<strong>and</strong> 24 vertical atmospheric levels in sigma coordinates<br />
> Multi-Variate Optimal Interpolation (MVOI) scheme is run twice daily<br />
producing global prognostic fields through 120 hours<br />
> Cressman (moisture) analysis of dew point depression including synthetic<br />
moisture soundings consistent with SSM/I precipitable water samples<br />
> Cumulus parameterization is a relaxed Arakawa-Schubert routine<br />
