1 DoD Interest in Seasonal & Sub-seasonal Climate Prediction Maj Ryan Harris Director of Operations 14th Weather Squadron Asheville, NC Approved for Public Release Distribution Unlimited 31 March 2015
2 Overview Background on 14th Weather Squadron (14 WS) Motivation for climate-scale awareness Climate Monitoring, Analysis, and Prediction (CMAP) DoD Interest in (Sub-) Seasonal Climate Prediction DoD Climate Services Partners DoD/Intel Community Climate Prediction Questions DoD (Sub-) Seasonal Prediction Needs Questions *NOTE: Definition of DoD in this briefing refers to the Service components that make up the Department of Defense served by climate services, not the policy level. Aim High Fly, Fight, Win 2
3 Background on 14 WS History 1941: Army AF established Climate Services 1952: Climate data ops move to Asheville, NC 2007: Air Force Combat Climatology Center (AFCCC) renamed 14 WS Mission: Collect, protect and exploit authoritative climate data to optimize military and intelligence community operations and planning Co-located w/ Internat l renowned climate experts Access to Asheville s growing Nat l climate consortium (NOAA, academia, small business) 22 Standard Climate Products/520K web hits/yr 900 Tailored Climate Supports/yr Authoritative DoD climate archive Aim High Fly, Fight, Win 3
4 Motivation for climate-scale awareness 2 May killed in floods ABV Normal Snowpack 60mm ABV Normal 10-day Precip Anomaly Apr 14 2K killed in landslide There have now been more Afghans killed through natural disasters in the past seven days than all of United Nations We stand ready to help our Afghan partners as they respond to this disaster. President Obama Aim High Fly, Fight, Win 4
5 Climate & National Security Driving force for Climate Monitoring, Analysis & Prediction (CMAP) Future Drought and Flooding Impacts on Water and Food Resources Significant Societal Challenges Population growth Coastal urbanization Globalization In many cases, a changing climate is a threat multiplier to Nat l & Global Security Strategic DoD and IC planning needs and improved climate science have driven demand for informative and relevant CMAP applications Climate monitoring (Diagnosis) (Sub-) Seasonal (Prognosis) Annual to Decadal (Prognosis) Potential for Humanitarian Assistance & Refugee Displacement due to Climate Variability Future Operations, Installations & Military Systems 5 Aim High Fly, Fight, Win 5
