Deficiencies in the Density of Ship's Reports.
Abstract
One of the prerequisites for improving weather and oceanographic forecasts is to improve the receipt of ships' reports at the world's major analysis centers. The density of these reports determines to a large degree the grid size which can realistically be used in numerical analysis and prediction over ocean areas (Wolff, 1964). In order to correct a certain problem, the problem must be clearly identified. The purpose of this memorandum is to point out certain deficiencies and make recommendations which can be called to the attention of USN, USWB and WMO authorities.
