Description:A better understanding of oceanic and atmospheric climates is becoming increasingly important. Essential to the understanding and study of climate processes is the evolutionary development and implementation of a global environmental measurement/monitoring system. With the advent of geostationary and polaror- biting satellites, the technology is now available for the collection of environmental data from surface stations all over the globe. Remote sensing of oceanographic and meteorological data by space—derived measurements will nrovide descriptions of planetary-scale phenomena. Moored and drifting buoy systems, in conjunction with space measurement systems, will enhance and complement the data products available from individual systems.
