About Naval Research Laboratory Monterey

The Marine Meteorology Division is part of NRL's Ocean and Atmospheric Science and Technology Directorate, which contains six divisions performing broadly based scientific research and advanced technology development in the fields of marine geosciences, acoustics, oceanography, marine meteorology, remote sensing and space science - covering the bottom of the ocean to the top of the atmosphere to meet identified and anticipated needs of the Navy and Marine Corps.

NRL Marine Meteorology Division conducts a research and development program designed to improve the basic understanding of the atmospheric processes and the atmosphere's interaction with the ocean, land and cryosphere; to develop and implement automated analysis, prediction and weather interpretation systems for DOD users; and to study the effect of the atmosphere on Naval weapons systems.
