BRIEFING CLIMATOLOGICAL
SUMMARIES OF TROPICAL
CYCLONE STORM
TRACKS
LEARNING OBJECTIVES: List the sources
for obtaining climatological tropical cyclone
storm track information.
There may be occasions when climatological data
is required for an area for which your activity does not
hold the necessary climatology publications. FNMOD
Asheville prepares the publication, Atmospheric
Climatic Publication, FLENUMMETOCDET
ASHEVILLENOTE 3146, which contains a concise list
of climatological publications, and the procedures for
obtaining them.
Among those available to assist the Aerographer
are:
l Marine Climatic Atlases of the World
l Global Tropical/Extrotropical Cyclone Climatic
Atlases
Since 1990 FNMOD Asheville has been shifting
away from climatic atlases in hard copy to compact
disc-read only memory (CD-ROM).
We will now discuss a few Geophysics Fleet
Mission Program Library (GFMPL) products used as
aids in the event of evasive and/or sortie measures due
to tropical cyclones.
