ARCTIC COLD WEATHER OPERATIONS OF SURFACE SHIPS. PROCEEDINGS

The following Papers, which are in microfiche form, were presented: Overview of the Cold Weather Program; Arctic Environment; Seaway Performance Improvement Program; Four Recent Encounters with Topside Icing; Operational Experience - SHAREM 55 and 62; High Latitude Operations ; A View from the Bridge; Preparation for Ship Helo Operations in the Polar/Sub-Polar Regions; Considerations for Propellers and Propulsion Plants Operating in Northern Latitudes; Status of Cold Weather Operations of Combat Systems; LAMPS Mk III Environmental Capabilities; Engineering Programs on Anti/De-Icing of the RAST Track Operations; Underway Replenishment in Cold Weather; Degradation of Surface Ship Operations in Arctic/Cold Weather Environments; Sea Ice Spray; Anti-Icing and De-Icing of Naval Surface Ships; Prevention and Retardation of Ice Formation at Sea; Arctic Ice Impact Assessment for Naval Surface Combatants; Cold Weather Clothing; Arctic Surface Warfare Hovercraft Program; Shipboard Icing Experiments; and Hull Stress Monitoring System for Arctic Ships.
