The report covers the work of the SEA USE Marine Services Development Group undertaken to determine potential benefits that might be derived by the shipping community from improved marine forecasts. This volume contains reports on ice predictions for the Bering, Chukchi, and Beaufort Seas with recommendations for improving the service; a report on the special services provided by the SEA USE Marine Services Development Group to the tug-barge operators involved in the 1975 North Slope resupply operation; and a review of the education and training requirements for marine meteorologists and for the users of marine forecasts. It also contains a report and analysis on the trial of an experimental marine advisory service that was conducted in cooperation with two tug-barge companies operating on the Puget Sound to Alaska route with recommendations for improving this specific service; and contains an analysis of potential benefits to optimum track ship routing services on the West Coast to Japan trade route from enhanced marine weather forecasting.
