AEROGRAPHER'S MATE, MODULE 01--SURFACE WEATHER OBSERVATIONS

AEROGRAPHER'S MATE, MODULE 01--SURFACE WEATHER OBSERVATIONS

 Serves as an introduction to identifying cloud types, surface weather observation elements, and conducting surface weather observations. The module also includes a complete explanation of how to record and encode surface METAR observations, and a description of meteorological observation equipment ashore and aboard ship. - Pages: 298

AEROGRAPHER'S MATE, MODULE 02--MISCELLANEOUS OBSERVATIONS AND CODES

AEROGRAPHER'S MATE, MODULE 02--MISCELLANEOUS OBSERVATIONS AND CODES

 Introduces and demonstrates the procedures for using meteorological upper air equipment and bathythermograph equipment to acquire upper air and bathythermograph data. Describes the proper procedures for encoding and decoding upper air and bathythermograph observations. Module 2 also discusses aviation observations and codes such as Terminal Aerodrome Forecasts (TAFs) Pilot Weather Reports (PIREPS) and includes chapters on Surf Observation procedures and Radiological Fallout and Chemical Contamination plotting procedures. - Pages: 160
