Data from moored and drifting buoys are collected via geostationary and polar orbiting satellites respectively. Meteorological reports from moored buoys using FM 13-IX SHIP code are distributed on the GTS from the Direct Readout Station located in Vancouver, B.C. Reports from drifting buoys are received at the ARGOS Local User Terminals in Edmonton and Toronto and distributed on the GTS using the FM 18-IX DRIFTER code.

7. Feed-back from Memb e n to the Secretariat on anv chanaes in the obs erv’n I q netwark

In view of the difficulties experienced a t present in identifying non-implemented observing stations or implemented stations which are closed or suspended for a certain period, or stations making observations but not reaching their NMCs, the ninth session of the CBS Advisory Working Group recommended that a special table be added to the WWW monthly operational letter to serve as feed-back from Members to the Secretariat on any changes of the present state of implementation of observing programmes of SYNOP, TEMP and PILOT reporting stations.

The special table, accompanied by explanatory notes (see Appendix, pages 1 and 2) is attached as an appendix to this annex. Members are urged to fill in this appendix, as and when appropriate, and to return it to the Secretariat before the 1st of each month to enable changes to be included in the next monthly letter.

Explanatory notes for

on any changes in the observing network

Separate tables should be prepared for global exchange and regional exchange respectively. These tables should contain information concerning any changes of the present state of implementation of observing programmes of SYNOP, TEMP and PILOT reporting stations given in Attachment 1-4 of the Manual on the GTS, Volume I for global exchange and, as applicable, Attachments AF-I, AI-1, SA-1, NA-1, PS-1 and EU-1 of the Manual on the GTS, Volume II for regional exchange.

For entries in these tables, the following should be taken into account:

(a) In the column "Station index number", the index number (Iliii) of each station should be entered in case of any changes in the observing programmes of the stations;

(b) In the column "Bulletin identification", the TTAAii CCCC of the abbreviated heading of the meteorological bulletins which contains reports from the station should be inserted;

(c) In the column "Implementation of observing programme", "X" for implementation and "-" for non- implementation should be inserted as appropriate. In order to easily identify changes in the programme, this should be marked in red;

(d) In the column "Alternate observing station", the index number (Ilii) of an alternate observing station should be inserted in case another station is available with a view to filling gaps which are caused by suspension of observing programmes of the original station;

(e) The required information concerning the observing programme of the alternate station should be inserted in the next horizontal line of the original station;

(9 In the column "Remarks", reasons of temporary suspension of observing programmes and an expected date of resumption of the programmes should be given as far as possible. Non-standard collection and/or distribution times should also be included.

These tables should be sent to the Secretariat before the 1st of the month for inclusion of the changes in the monthly operational letter, as appropriate.
