METEOROLOGICAL SERVICE FOR INTERNATIONAL AIR NAVIGATION - ANNEX 3

In this part of the METEOROLOGY section, selected Chapters and paragraphs have been extracted fromICAO Annex 3 – Meteorological Service for International Air Navigation. Chapter and paragraph numbersreflect those contained in the Annex.

CHAPTER 1 – DEFINITIONS1.1 DEFINITIONSWhen the following terms are used in the Standardsand Recommended Practices for Meteorological Ser-vice for International Air Navigation, they have the fol-lowing meanings:

AERODROME CLIMATOLOGICAL SUMMARY —Concise summary of specified meteorological ele-ments at an aerodrome, based on statistical data.

AERODROME CLIMATOLOGICAL TABLE — Tableproviding statistical data on the observed occurrenceof one or more meteorological elements at an aero-drome.

AERODROME METEOROLOGICAL OFFICE — Anoffice, located at an aerodrome, designated to pro-vide meteorological service for international air navi-gation.

AERONAUTICAL FIXED TELECOMMUNICATIONNETWORK (AFTN) — A world-wide system ofaeronautical fixed circuits provided, as part of theaeronautical fixed service, for the exchange of mes-sages and/or digital data between aeronautical fixedstations having the same or compatible communica-tions characteristics.

AERONAUTICAL METEOROLOGICAL STA-TION — A station designated to make observationsand meteorological reports for use in international airnavigation.

AIRCRAFT OBSERVATION — The evaluation of oneor more meteorological elements made from an air-craft in flight.

AIRMET INFORMATION — Information issued bya meteorological watch office concerning the occur-rence or expected occurrence of specified en routeweather phenomena which may affect the safetyof low-level aircraft operations and which was notalready included in the forecast issued for low-levelflights in the flight information region concerned orsub-area thereof.

AIR-REPORT — A report from an aircraft in flightprepared in conformity with requirements for position,and operational and/or meteorological reporting.

NOTE: Details of the AIREP form are given in PANS-ATM (Doc 4444).

AUTOMATIC DEPENDENT SURVEILLANCE(ADS) — A surveillance technique in which air-craft automatically provide, via a data link, dataderived from on-board navigation and position-fixingsystems, including aircraft identification, four-dimen-sional position and additional data as appropriate.

BRIEFING — Oral commentary on existing and/orexpected meteorological conditions.

CLOUD OF OPERATIONAL SIGNIFICANCE — Acloud with the height of cloud base below 1500m(5000ft) or below the highest minimum sector altitude,whichever is greater, or a cumulonimbus cloud or atowering cumulus cloud at any height.

CONSULTATION — Discussion with a meteorolo-gist or another qualified person of existing and/orexpected meteorological conditions relating to flightoperations; a discussion includes answers to ques-tions.

EXTENDED RANGE OPERATION — Any flight byan aeroplane with two turbine power-units where theflight time at the one power-unit inoperative cruisespeed (in ISA and still air conditions), from a pointon the route to an adequate alternate aerodrome, isgreater than the threshold time approved by the Stateof the Operator.

FLIGHT DOCUMENTATION — Written or printeddocuments, including charts or forms, containingmeteorological information for a flight.

FORECAST — A statement of expected meteorolog-ical conditions for a specified time or period, and fora specified area or portion of airspace.

GAMET AREA FORECAST — An area forecast inabbreviated plain language for low-level flights fora flight information region or sub-area thereof, pre-pared by the meteorological office designated by themeteorological authority concerned and exchangedwith meteorological offices in adjacent flight informa-tion regions, as agreed between the meteorologicalauthorities concerned.

GRID POINT DATA IN DIGITAL FORM — Computerprocessed meteorological data for a set of regularlyspaced points on a chart, for transmission from ameteorological computer to another computer in acode form suitable for automated use.

NOTE: In most cases such data are transmitted onmedium or high speed telecommunications channels.

HUMAN FACTORS PRINCIPLES — Principleswhich apply to aeronautical design, certification,training, operations and maintenance and whichseek safe interface between the human and othersystem components by proper consideration tohuman performance.

INTERNATIONAL AIRWAYS VOLCANO WATCH(IAVW) — International arrangements for monitoringand providing warnings to aircraft of volcanic ash inthe atmosphere.

NOTE: The IAVW is based on the co-operation of avi-ation and non-aviation operational units using infor-mation derived from observing sources and networksthat are provided by States. The watch is coordinatedby ICAO with the co-operation of other concernedinternational organizations.

METEOROLOGICAL AUTHORITY — The authorityproviding or arranging for the provision of meteorolog-ical service for international air navigation on behalfof a Contracting State.

METEOROLOGICAL BULLETIN — A text compris-ing meteorological information preceded by an appro-priate heading.

METEOROLOGICAL INFORMATION — Meteo-rological report, analysis, forecast and any otherstatement relating to existing or expected meteoro-logical conditions.

METEOROLOGICAL SERVICE FOR INTERNATIONAL AIR TRAFFIC /SIGMET, AIRMET, WSW - ANNEX 3 q$i

6.2.4 Recommendation. - When an aircraftreport is used to prepare a wind shear warning, or toconfirm a warning previously issued, the correspond-ing aircraft report, including the aircraft type, shouldbe disseminated unchanged in accordance with localarrangements to those concerned.

NOTE 1: Following reported encounters by both arriv-ing and departing aircraft two different wind shearwarnings may exist, one for arriving aircraft and onefor departing aircraft.

NOTE 2: Specifications for reporting the intensityof wind shear are still undergoing development. Itis recognized, however, that pilots, when reportingwind shear, may use the qualifying terms "moderate","strong" or "severe", based to a large extent on theirsubjective assessment of the intensity of the windshear encountered.

6.2.5 The wind shear alerts shall be dissem-inated from automated, ground-based, wind shearremote-sensing or detection equipment in accor-dance with local arrangements to those concerned.

6.2.6 Recommendation. - Where microburstsare observed, reported by pilots or detected byground-based, wind shear detection or remote-sens-ing equipment, the wind shear warning and windshear alert should include a specific reference tomicroburst.

6.2.7 Where information from ground-basedwind shear detection or remote-sensing equipmentis used to prepare a wind shear warning, the warningshould, if practicable, relate to specific sections ofthe runway and distances along the approach pathor take-off path as agreed between the meteorolog-ical authority, the appropriate ATS authority and theoperators concerned.

ATIS Automated Terminal Information System.

AWOS Automated Weather Observing System.

Consists of various sensors, a processor, a voice synthesizer, and transmitter to relaylocal real-time weather data directly to the pilot. These systems are classified into fourbasic levels:

AWOS-A Reports altimeter setting.

AWOS-1 Reports altimeter setting, wind data, and usually temperature, dew point, anddensity altitude.

AWOS-2 Reports the same as AWOS-1 plus visibility.

AWOS-3 Reports the same as AWOS-1 plus visibility and cloud/ceiling data.

FFFP Fast File Flight Plan System.

For pilots who already have obtained a weather briefing and desire only to file a flight plan.Pilots may call the discrete telephone numbers listed and file flight plans in accordancewith recorded taped instructions. IFR flight plans will be extracted and entered in theappropriate ARTCC computer. VFR flight plans will be retained at the FSS for activationby the pilot. This equipment is designed to automatically disconnect after 8 seconds of notransmission, so pilots are instructed to speak at a normal speech rate without lengthypauses between flight plan elements. Pilots are urged to file flight plans into this systemat least 30 minutes in advance of proposed departure.

TABLE 7-1-8 Turbulence Reporting Criteria Table

Intensity Aircraft Reaction Reaction Inside Aircraft Reporting Term-Definition

Light

Turbulence thatmomentarily causes slight,erratic changes in altitudeand/or attitude (pitch, roll,yaw). Report as LightTurbulence;1

1. High level turbulence (normally above 15,000 feet ASL) not associated with cumuliform cloudiness,including thunderstorms, should be reported as CAT (clear air turbulence) preceded by the appropriateintensity, or light or moderate chop.

Occupants may feel a slightstrain against seat belts orshoulder straps. Unsecuredobjects may be displacedslightly. Food service may beconducted and little or nodifficulty is encountered inwalking.

Occasional — Less than 1/3 ofthe time.

or

Turbulence that causesslight, rapid and somewhatrhythmic bumpinesswithout appreciablechanges in altitude orattitude. Report as LightChop.1

Intermittent — 1/3 to 2/3.

Continuous — More than 2/3.

Moderate

Turbulence that is similar toLight Turbulence but ofgreater intensity. Changesin altitude and/or attitudeoccur but the aircraftremains in positive controlat all times. It usuallycauses variations inindicated airspeed. Reportas Moderate Turbulence;1

Occupants feel definite strainsagainst seat belts or shoulderstraps. Unsecured objects aredislodged. Food service andwalking are difficult.

NOTE:1. Pilots should report

location(s), time (UTC),intensity, whether in or nearclouds, altitude, type ofaircraft and, when applicable,duration of turbulence.

or

Turbulence that is similar toLight Chop but of greaterintensity. It causes rapidbumps or jolts withoutappreciable changes inaircraft altitude or attitude.Report as ModerateChop.1

2. Duration may be based ontime between two locationsor over a single location. Alllocations should be readilyidentifiable.

Severe

Turbulence that causeslarge, abrupt changes inaltitude and/or attitude. Itusually causes largevariations in indicatedairspeed. Aircraft may bemomentarily out of control.Report as SevereTurbulence.1

Occupants are forced violentlyagainst seat belts or shoulderstraps. Unsecured objects aretossed about. Food Serviceand walking are impossible.

EXAMPLE:a. Over Omaha. 1232Z,

Moderate Turbulence, incloud, Flight Level 310,B707.

Extreme

Turbulence in which theaircraft is violently tossedabout and is practicallyimpossible to control. Itmay cause structuraldamage. Report asExtreme Turbulence.1

b. From 50 miles south ofAlbuquerque to 30 milesnorth of Phoenix, 1210Z to1250Z, occasional ModerateChop, Flight Level 330, DC8.
