WCDMP, 83. IDARE White Paper
Congress during its sixteenth session in 2011 welcomed the decision of the Commission for Climatology during its fifteenth session in 2010 for improving WMO Climate System Monitoring including related methodologies and dissemination of monitoring reports for timely information on extreme weather and climate events occurring on large scale and having high socioeconomic impacts. A brochure called "Assessment of the observed extreme conditions during the 2009/2010 boreal winter" was published by WMO in 2010 and is now followed by this supplement to the WMO annual statement on the status of the g ...
IOM Report, 115. AMDAR Onboard Software Functional Requirements Specification : (Version 1.1, 2 June 2014)
This document provides a functional specification for AMDAR onboard software, which can be utilized by avionics software developers to build avionics software applications for AMDAR that will efficiently meet WMO standards and requirements for reporting of meteorological data from the aircraft platform utilizing aviation communications protocols and infrastructure.

Promoting the use of climate information to achieve long-term development objectives in sub-Saharan Africa : results from the Future Climate For Africa scoping phase
This report is based on initial research into the use of long-term (5-40 year) climate information in Malawi, Rwanda, Zambia and the coastal cities of Accra, Ghana and Maputo, Mozambique to achieve long-term development objectives in sub-Saharan Africa . The study also assesses how long-term climate information is being used by planners of large dams and ports in Africa. The research finds that governments and businesses are failing to consider long-term climate information in investment planning: in most of the case study countries, not a single example of climate information being effectivel ...

The need for multiple types of information to inform climate change assessment
Toman Mickael - World Bank, 2014Information on ecosystem characteristics as well as economic statistics is needed to more fully inform decision makers on the impacts of climate change on human well-being. Climate change risks involve potentially large and irreversible as well as highly uncertain impacts that need to be evaluated with information that complements cost-benefit analysis. Information on the irreversibility of impacts also is relevant for evaluating implications for intergenerational equity. In addition, climate change is subject to a large degree of Knightian uncertainty, making it useful to understand how indiv ...
Climate Data Management System Specifications
This publication establishes a framework defining the functionality required within a climate data management system (CDMS). A CDMS is an integrated computer-based system that facilitates the effective archival, management, analysis, delivery and utilization of a wide range of integrated climate data.
CH2014 - Impacts: toward quantitative scenarios of climate change impacts in Switzerland
Alda Erik - Switzerland Government, 2014This report aims to contribute to a future comprehensive quantitative depiction of potential climate change impacts in Switzerland, from which the impacted community can draw upon to inform and support stakeholders and policymakers. The report compiles quantitative information from multiple fields, based on common climate scenarios. It is thus an effort toward building a set of quantitative scenarios of climate change impacts in Switzerland, in analogy to the CH2011 climate scenarios.
Guidelines on the Preparation and Promulgation of the WMO Technical Regulations
The development of these Guidelines was prompted by the need to establish some common understanding, as well as rules and procedures, for those engaged in the preparation and promulgation of regulatory material in WMO. Their purpose therefore is to lay out principles and procedures with a view to improving the quality of the WMO Technical Regulations, Volume I to Volume IV and their annexes (manuals) and guides and ensure their consistency. The Guidelines are addressed to both technical commissions and other bodies drafting regulatory provisions (such as the Executive Council Panel of Experts ...
Guide des systèmes d’observation et de diffusion de l’information pour l’assistance météorologique à la navigation aérienne
Ce guide présente certains des systèmes d’observation existants qui sont susceptibles de répondre aux exigences pratiques de la météorologie aéronautique et donne des indications sur les systèmes que l’on juge les mieux adaptés aux différents contextes. Il préconise l’adoption, s’il y a lieu, des normes promulguées par l’OMM et l’Organisation de l’aviation civile internationale (OACI). Enfin, il aborde l’importante question du coût de la fourniture des observations en regard des avantages mesurables que l’on compte retirer d’une application donnée.
Guide to Meteorological Observing and Information Distribution Systems for Aviation Weather Services
This Guide presents some of the observing systems currently available to meet the stated operational requirements in aeronautical meteorology and provides guidance on the ones deemed most appropriate under different circumstances. Where applicable, the Guide encourages the adoption of WMO/International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standards. An important issue considered is the cost of the provision of observations in relation to the expected measurable benefits to be derived from a particular application.
Руководство по системам метеорологических наблюдений и распространения информации для метеорологического обслуживания авиации
В настоящем Руководстве представлены некоторые из систем наблюдений, которые в
настоящее время имеются для удовлетворения заявленных оперативных потребностей в
области авиационной метеорологии, а также представлены рекомендации по системам,
наиболее подходящим для использования в различных обстоятельствах. Когда это
необходимо, Руководство стимулирует принятие стандартов ВМО и Международной
организации гражданской авиации (ИКАО). Важным рассмотренным вопросом является
стоимость обеспечения наблюдений относительно ожидаемых измеримых выгод,
получ ...
