IOM Report, 141. Report on the 3rd WMO International Pyrgeometer Intercomparison (IPgC-III) (27 September-15 October 2021, Davos, Switzerland)
This report presents the results of the thirdInternational Pyrgeometer Intercomparison (IPgC-III) that was organized by the Physikalisch-Meteorologisches Observatorium Davos/World Radiation Centre (PMOD/WRC) in Davos, Switzerland,from 27 September to 15 October 2021. IPgC-III demonstrated the stability of the WISG and enabledthe calibration of a large number of instruments. It has been shown that there is an apparent offsetbetween the WISG and the International System of Units (SI) and that recent technologicaldevelopments enable to significantly reduce the uncertainties of potential new refer ...

It has been shown that there is an apparent offsetbetween the WISG and the International System of Units (SI) and that recent technologicaldevelopments enable to significantly reduce the uncertainties of potential new reference instruments.IPgC-III was also the occasion for investigating the performance of such modern instruments and howthey compare to the WISG. This will be crucial for ensuring the continuity of climate time series incase of reference change.

IOM Report, 140. Report on the WMO International Pyrheliometer Comparison (IPC-XIII) (27 September-15 October 2021, Davos, Switzerland)
This report summarizes the outcomes of the 13thWMO International Pyrheliometer Comparison (IPC-XIII) and demonstrates the stability of the WRR inproviding a worldwide metrological reference. Favourable weather conditions enabled acquisition of alarge number of the calibration points, what increased confidence in the traceability dissemination. Onthe days without weather conditions appropriate to take the measurements, a symposium on radiationmeasurement was organized. Many presentations delivered at the symposium facilitated theexperience exchange and knowledge transfer.

TCP, 30. Regional Association IV – Hurricane Operational Plan for North America, Central America and the Caribbean (WMO-No. 1163), TCP-30
The regional activities under the WMO Tropical Cyclone Programme consist mainly of the programmes pursued by groups of countries acting in concert to improve their warning systems. In Region IV (North America, Central America and the Caribbean) there is a long history of collective action specifically designed to protect people and property from the severe tropical cyclones which are called hurricanes in the Region. A working group, known as the RA IV Hurricane Committee, was established by the seventh session of Regional Association IV (Mexico City, April May 1977) to promote such activities ...

Guidelines on Implementation of a Coastal Inundation Forecasting–Early Warning System (WMO-No. 1293)
This publication, Guidelines on Implementation of a Coastal Inundation Forecasting - Early Warning System (CIF-EWS) is the result of a resolution of the World Meteorological Congress 18 (2019) to assist vulnerable countries to implement their own CIF-EWS. These Guidelines are based on the successful implementation of demonstration systems in four countries between 2009 and 2019 through the Coastal Inundation Forecasting Demonstration Project (CIFDP) (Swail et al., 2019). Additionally, these Guidelines can be used as a valuable planning tool for coastal zone management, in order to build resili ...

GAW Report, 278. Scientific Assessment of Ozone Depletion: 2022 (GAW 278)
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA); United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP); et al. - WMO, 2022To help maintain a broad understanding of the relationship between ozone depletion, ODSs, and the Montreal Protocol, this component of the Scientific Assessment of Ozone Depletion: 2014 presents 20 questions and answers about the often-complex science of ozone depletion. Most questions and answers are updates of those presented in previous Ozone Assessments, and a few have been expanded to address newly emerging issues. The questions address the nature of atmospheric ozone, the chemicals that cause ozone deple tion, how global and polar ozone depletion occur, the extent of ozone depletion, the ...
