International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship, third workshop (IBTrACS-III), Report and Recommendations : final report
Knapp Kenneth - WMO, 2016The 3rd international IBTrACS workshop was held in Honolulu, Hawaii, on 16-February-2016. This workshop was held in conjunction with the 2nd International Workshop on the Satellite Analysis of Tropical Cyclones, and so was an opportunity to have a good cross-section of the international tropical cyclone community in order to advance the work of IBTrACS in serving the needs and requirements of IBTrACS users. NCEI’s Kenneth Knapp conducted the workshop in person and was supported by members of NCEI’s IBTrACS team (Howard Diamond, James Kossin, Michael Kruk, and Carl Schreck) on the phone in help ...

Rapport TCP, 30. Association Régionale IV - Plan opérationnel pour les cyclones tropicaux
Les activités régionales déployées au titre du Programme de l'OMM concernant les cyclones tropicaux se composent essentiellement des programmes réalisés par des groupes de pays agissant ensemble pour améliorer leurs systèmes d'avis. La Région IV (Amérique du Nord , Amérique centrale et Caraïbes ) compte à son actif une longue histoire d'efforts conjugués pour protéger les biens et les personnes des violents cyclones tropicaux qui, dans cette partie du monde, sont désignés par le nom d'ouragans. A sa septième session (Mexico, avril-mai 1977), l'Association régionale IV a créé un groupe de ...

Tropical Cyclone Forecaster Website
This website of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) is aimed to serve as a platform for the information sources for tropical cyclone forecasters to obtain data and tools which are useful for monitoring and forecasting of tropical cyclones. Forecasters may access the various sources providing conventional and specialized data/products including those from numerical predictions and remote sensing observations as well as forecasting tools concerning tropical cyclone development, motion, intensification and wind distribution. It will continue to develop along with the availability of new ...
