Conference theme: Weather and climate: global change and local hazards

The challenges for meteorology are growing. Citizens, decision-makers, indeed all of society require information on the consequences of our changing climate, and especially on weather and climate hazards that seem to occur more frequently and to have a significant impact on humans, nature, and infrastructure. The essential role of meteorology since the start of operations remains unchanged – the provision to society of reliable forecasts and trustworthy warnings. However, in the 21st century impact predictions and long-term projections of climate change are also needed to support national strategic decisions aimed at saving lives and reducing the costs of natural hazards.

Ivan Bogoev from Campbell Scientific will make an oral presentation on September 5 at 18:15 in Room E III: “Novel Non-Contact Integrated Air Thermometer Hygrometer Anemometer with Rapid Response."
