WWRP, 2011-1. 7th International Workshop on Tropical Cyclones (IWTC-VII)
Since November 1985, WMO has organized a series of quadrennial International Workshops on Tropical Cyclones (IWTCs), the latest of which took place in La Reunion (France) from 10 to 15 November 2010. It is noteworthy that this seventh WMO International Workshop on Tropical Cyclones (IWTC-VII) has been the first held in WMO Regional Association I (Africa). The Workshop primary objectives were to review progress in tropical cyclone research and operational practices since IWTC-VI and to contribute in identifying future research and operational priorities.

Since November 1985, WMO has organized a series of quadrennial International Workshops on Tropical Cyclones (IWTCs), the latest of which took place in La Reunion (France) from 10 to 15 November 2010. It is noteworthy that this seventh WMO International Workshop on Tropical Cyclones (IWTC-VII) has been the first held in WMO Regional Association I (Africa). The Workshop primary objectives were to review progress in tropical cyclone research and operational practices since IWTC-VI and to contribute in identifying future research and operational priorities. The six-day meeting set the scene for extensive in-depth discussions and resulted in a number of significant recommendations. A key Workshop outcome has been, in particular, the text book "Global Perspectives on Tropical Cyclones: From Science to Mitigation", a completely rewritten, updated and expanded version of the 1995 original "Global Perspectives on Tropical Cyclones".

IOM Report, 107. WMO Intercomparison of High Quality Radiosonde Systems
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; Oakley T.; Vömel Holger; et al. - WMO, 2011 (WMO/TD-No. 1580)The present report includes a detailed analysis of the QRS intercomparisons, a specific analysis of the SSI group, and draws conclusions and recommendations that are key information for the manufacturers, the NMHS as well as the scientific and climate community. Results show that unprecedented performances have been achieved with QRS while the expected performances to be reached with respect to the GRUAN specifications still require more research. This work is an essential contribution to the WMO Integrated Global Observing Systems (WIGOS) to improve services to society by increasing the data ...

Event: WMO Intercomparison of High Quality Radiosonde Systems (12 July – 3 August 2010; Yangjiang, China)
Published by: WMO ; 2011The present report includes a detailed analysis of the QRS intercomparisons, a specific analysis of the SSI group, and draws conclusions and recommendations that are key information for the manufacturers, the NMHS as well as the scientific and climate community. Results show that unprecedented performances have been achieved with QRS while the expected performances to be reached with respect to the GRUAN specifications still require more research. This work is an essential contribution to the WMO Integrated Global Observing Systems (WIGOS) to improve services to society by increasing the data quality and consequently availability to improve outputs from models and provide information and products to support decision making at all levels.

IOM Report, 106. WMO Field Intercomparison of Thermometer Screens/Shields and Humidity Measuring Instruments : Ghardaïa, Algeria, November 2008 – October 2009
The WMO Combined Intercomparison of Temperature Screens/Shields in Conjunction with Humidity Measuring Instruments was carried out in Ghardaïa, Algeria from November 2008 to October 2009, at the kind invitation of the Algerian Meteorological Service and under the leadership of CIMO. This intercomparison allowed testing the performance of the instruments in desert conditions, in a dry, hot and dusty environment. It was planned to carry out a follow-up intercomparison of similar instruments in an arctic environment at a later stage. The main objectives of this intercomparison were to gain knowle ...

GAW Report, 195. WMO/GAW Expert Workshop on Global Long-term Measurements of Nitrogen Oxides and Recommendations for GAW Nitrogen Oxides Network
World Meteorological Organization (WMO) ; Gilge S.; Plass-Duelmer C.; et al. - WMO, 2011 (WMO/TD-No. 1570)Nitrogen oxides are a component of a group of reactive gases required to be measured in the GAW Programme. The reactive gases group focuses on gases known to be intimately involved in various aspects of the chemistry of the troposphere and includes surface ozone (O3), carbon monoxide (CO), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and sulphur dioxide (SO2), as well as oxidized nitrogen species. The sum of nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) has traditionally been called NOx. The sum of oxidized nitrogen species with an oxidation number >1, both organic and inorganic, is referred to as ...

PWS, 22. Guidelines on international and cross-border collaboration in the warning process
This document provides guidelines on international collaboration in the warning process for severe weather threats and extreme conditions (heat wave, cold wave, drought, storm surge, avalanches, flooding.) It discusses general principles regarding cross-border exchange of warnings, and includes the role of the media in raising the public’s expectations, focus on public safety, threshold criteria and the scope of cooperation. It also presents examples from different parts of the world to illustrate the factors to be considered in developing international or cross-border collaborations in the wa ...
