This document addresses the key objectives of each group. It is an unofficial document primarily designed to provide guidance to those concerned with the scope of GOV and ET-OOFS. It does not provide guidance on, e.g., funding arrangements of the two groups. Justification The formation of two teams is both a recognition that operational oceanography has matured since the initiation of GODAE, but also that it remains in its infancy compared with comparable services in NWP. GODAE achieved its goals quite handsomely where we now have several international centres providing ocean forecast services supported by a sophisticated infrastructure and open data sharing policies. The first and second generation ocean prediction systems are offering encouraging performance for some applications while remaining inadequate for a majority of applications. Operational oceanography is a complex challenge that will need to be underpinned by continuous scientific and technological innovation to achieve the improved performance given the practical constraints. The quality and pace of innovation will continue to be aided by the coordination of an international group GODAE OceanView. The formation of ET-OOFS under the JCOMM Service Programme Area is also a recognition that the prototype operational forecasting systems and technologies developed under GODAE will need to be transitioned into full operational systems based on international best practices in service delivery meeting agreed performance standards and targets. Operational oceanography is a costly exercise. Whether this be the human and technological resources required by operational agencies to support operational ocean prediction systems and services or the human and technological resources required to maintain a global ocean observing system. Operational oceanography at both a national and international level will need to present ever more robust evidence that justifies the continued investment. The steadily increasing impact of the existing services is encouraging but remains far from the optimum performance that is possible or the performance level that is demanded by some users. A key role of ET-OOFS will be to provide the intergovernmental coordination for National agencies to identify and encourage best practices in service delivery and seek robust engagement and information from the user communities to identify performance targets as well as demonstrate the impact and benefits of the services. Objectives The common objective of both teams is to focus on international activities that will lead to the highest possible quality of ocean forecast services being delivered to users for maximum societal benefit. The objectives of GOV are to encourage and foster international collaboration to address the scientific and technological challenges associated with operational oceanography and closely related prediction. GOV's role is to foster research that will lead to the next generation systems. The objectives of JCOMM ET-OOFS are to support operational agencies through inter-agency and integovernmental coordination to deliver consistent ocean forecasting and related services that positively impact their users. ET-OOFS's role is to foster international activities that will lead to improved services from existing and planned operational systems. Governance ET-OOFS is an expert team under JCOMM Service Program Area which in turn sits under JCOMM/MAN. ET-OOFS has joint secretariat support from IOC and WMO. GOV is a research team that will sit within JCOMM in a structure to be determined. Relationships between ET-OOFS and GOV ET-OOFS and GOV have a common objective and therefore will have an interest in all aspects of operational oceanography, However the objectives will differentiate the level of interest that each group will undertake and the leadership that will be required in each specific area. Formation of task teams ET-OOFS and GOV will endeavour to coordinate and collaborate through the formation of task teams to minimise potential duplication and/or redundancy of effort. The process for this collaboration will be further developed between the two teams. Relationships with the ocean community The most critical aspect of the two team arrangement will be management of external communications and engagement. The point of contact to specific sections of the ocean community needs to be carefully managed, adhered to and externally communicated. The following arrangements and responsibilities are proposed for some identified external groups. Ocean research community: Engagement will be coordinated through GOV. Ocean observing community: ET-OOFS is responsible for coordinating the operational observational requirements through the JCOMM Observational Programme Area. GOV will promote activities that develop new methods and knowledge about the impact of existing observing systems and also designs for new observing systems. Ocean service providers: Engagement with operational agencies and other third party providers will be coordinated through ET-OOFS within the JCOMM/SPA. Ocean forecast users: Operational agencies will provide the direct engagement with users and will report progress, feedback through ET-OOFS. Engagement of the user community at international forum will be coordinated through both GOV and ET-OOFS depending on the stage of engagement of the user group. The subsequent paragraphs outline the objectives of the two groups. For further details see relevant documentation of GOV and ET-OOFS. GODAE OceanView GOV will focus on the development of global (physical) ocean forecasting systems for operational implementation. The activities on which GOVST will focus are assessments of the performance of and development of improvements to the components of the forecasting systems; (suggested version) coordinate the development of new performance metrics and provide coordination for research and development of improvements to the components of the forecasting systems; (Justification: ET-OOFS will adopt a growing set of operational system performance metrics as part of its TOR. GOV's role should be to develop new metrics or expensive posterior metrics and make recommendations for new operational metrics to be adopted. Recommended that this be formed as a joint task team. initiatives aiming to exploit the forecasting systems for greater societal benefit; (suggested version) coordinate development and validation of new and improved derived products from ocean forecasting products in support of extended operational services and greater societal benefit. (Justification: ET-OOFS will engage ocean forecast providers and users and will be responsible for reporting on the quality and gaps in services. GOV responding to this report and other independent information should lead a task team on this activity); evaluations of the dependence of the forecasting systems and societal benefits on the components of the observation system. (suggested version) coordinate research to assess and optimise the design of the operational ocean observing system and evaluate the impact of new observing systems to operational ocean forecasting applications (Justification: ET-OOFS have a responsibility to develop the operational observation requirements document which will need to include the recommendations of this task team into account. It is recommended that this be a joint task team); The first task will involve delayed-mode inter-comparisons with new and improved metrics between systems when appropriate and consider all aspects of the forecasting systems (e.g. model formulation and resolution, data assimilation and quality control). Recommendation will be made to ET-OOFS for new metrics suitable for operational implementation. The second task will involve the development of new and better performing downstream services; collaborations with closely related prediction service areas coastal systems, atmospheric systems and ecosystem experts; and is likely to include development of coupled/nested forecasting and seamless prediction. The third task will support the first two tasks and should aim to provide scientific evidence for use in the design improvements of the existing operational system through ET-OOFS and advocacy of new components to the global observation system. To address above tasks, GOV will establish specific task teams in support of its objectives: Intercomparison and Validation Task Team Observing System Evaluation Task Team Coastal Ocean and Shelf Seas Task Team Marine Ecosystem Monitoring and Prediction Task Team Under auspices of GOV, members of the task teams are encouraged to collaborate with ET-OOFS. GOV will work with JCOMM (and others, e.g. GSSC and CEOS) to find the most efficient and effective way for GOV to contribute to the prioritisation, advocacy, implementation and exploitation of the GOOS. Terms of reference for the ET-OOFS (as per June 2009) Develop and maintain "The guide to operational oceanographic forecasting systems", and requirement documents, adhering to relevant Quality Management Systems, for members providing ocean forecasting services; Provide advice to JCOMM teams and member states on the application, nomenclature, symbology and standards used by operational ocean forecasting systems; Develop and operate an inter-comparison framework for NRT monitoring of operational ocean forecasting systems and promote interoperability of products and services; Work effectively with the scientific community developing and maintaining operational ocean forecasting systems; Provide observation requirements for OOFS for the JCOMM Observation Programme Area (OPA); Provide advice to the JCOMM Data Management Programme Area (DMPA); Promote and support the development and adoption of member agency services to the wider community, particularly recognised operationasl groups (e.g., MAES, MSS, SI)     PAGE  PAGE 2 K[bfg Pabcd5-@νζζζνΏ΅}sh:$hu5>*h}Rhu6hShu5>*h Ghu5>*h  huCJaJhuCJaJhZhhu5>* h  hu hu5>*h,Xhu5>*huhXhu5>*hu5B*CJaJphhZhhu5CJaJhu5CJaJ-KLbcgh cd $7$8$H$a$gdu$a$gdu$a$gdud7,-T67 gduoզ$a$gdugdugdu@DT78NO 8 """##$$4%I%S%g%t%}%%&&&''1'N''뮧딍낔딂whwhuB*phhhuB*ph hjhuhuB*phhUQjhuB*ph hUQjhu hZhhuhZhhu5>* huhuhxhu6h|shu6 hu6hhu6hB$5hu6huh:$hu5>* hu5>*-8 9 """$$5%&&T(U(s((/)) & F h^gduh^hgdux`xgdu & Fgdugdu$a$gdu $7$8$H$a$gdu'S(((((((()))^)f)*@*A*N*_*c*** + + +0+X++++++,,,¸±ub%hu5CJOJQJ^JaJmH sH  hX9huCJOJQJ^JaJhZhhuOJQJ^JhuB*aJph hWhuhwhuB*aJph hwhuhwhuh0FhwhuaJh huB*phhuhuB*phhwhuB*ph hUQjhuh,'huB*ph"))*** +1+X+++++,,,,-Z. & F  7x^7gdu  gdu$a$gdu$a$gdu $7$8$H$a$gdu & F h^gdugduh^hgdu,,,,,B-C---.Y.Z.p/y/00%0000000000000000000000000丣{u{u{u{j{uhu0JmHnHu hu0Jjhu0JUhujhuU"huCJOJQJ^JaJmH sH (hsrRhuCJOJQJ^JaJmH sH %hu5CJOJQJ^JaJmH sH 0hu5CJOJQJ\^JaJmH nH sH tH 6h8hu5CJOJQJ\^JaJmH nH sH tH (Z./q//000000000000000000h]hgdu &`#$gdu & F 7x^7gdu,1h.
