Although, environmental data are also important for offensive mining, a decision was made prior to the symposium and the writing of this report to primarily concentrate on the importance of oceanographic data for mine countermeasures, as it was felt that this community more actively and routinely uses oceanographic data. Environmental conditions strongly impact mine warfare operations.

To ensure near real time use of in situ environmental data, it is important that wireless data transmissions are available to move data rapidly from ship to shore and back. With increased use of complex oceanographic datasets it is essential that mine warfare operators receive advanced training enabling them to understand oceanic processes and operate the tools used to interpret oceanographic data.

A greater understanding of coastal zone processes will allow decisionmakers to identify the most advantageous mix of in situ data collection and environmental prediction. · Developing the ability to quantitatively model and predict environmental variability is an important challenge facing nearshore operations.
