    Klimaforschung mit Satelliten Satellitendaten zum Sprechen bringen Seit 20 Jahren arbeitet beim Deutschen Wetterdienst eine Gruppe von Expertinnen und Experten daran, das Klima mithilfe von Satellitendaten zu beobachten und Verän- derungen zu erfassen. Das Auswertezentrum für Satellitendaten zur Klimabeobach- tung, das so genannte Satellite Application Facility on Climate Monitoring, kurz CM SAF, stellt rund 3.500 Nutzern weltweit Datensätze zur Verfügung. Mit Hilfe dieser Da- ten können beispielsweise Photovoltaikanlagen besser geplant werden. Offenbach, 27. Mai 2019 – Sie heißen CLARA, CLAAS oder SARAH – was in der Me- teorologie zunächst nach Namen von Hochs und Tiefs klingt, entpuppt sich bei näherer Betrachtung als eine große virtuelle Karteikarte, auf der schier unendlich viele Satelli- tendaten über einen festgelegten Zeitraum zu einem Datensatz für die Klimaforschung geformt werden. Geschrieben wird eine solche Karteikarte wie CLARA, CLAAS oder SARAH vom Satellite Application Facility on Climate Monitoring, kurz CM SAF. Dieses Auswertezentrum für Satellitendaten zur Klimabeobachtung ist beim Deutschen Wet- terdienst (DWD) in der Offenbacher Zentrale angesiedelt. Es ist eines von insgesamt acht solchen Zentren, die europaweit gemeinsam von EUMETSAT, der europäischen Organisation zur Nutzung meteorologischer Satelliten, und seinen Mitgliedern betrie- ben werden. Ihre Aufgaben: Satellitendaten so zu übersetzen und darzustellen, dass sie von Wissenschaft, Forschung und Wirtschaft genutzt werden können. Beim CM SAF geht es darum, das Klima der Erde mithilfe von Satellitendaten über einen möglichst langen Zeitraum zu erfassen und zu erforschen und dabei Verände- rungen aufzuzeigen. Dazu analysieren die CM SAF-Expertinnen und -Experten aus Belgien, Deutschland, Finnland, Frankreich, Großbritannien, den Niederlanden, Schweden und der Schweiz die Rohdaten von Satelliten und schauen sich dann insbe- sondere den Energie- und Wasserkreislauf der Atmosphäre an.

    The H-SAF precipitation products and their use for severe event monitoring Federico Porcù Department of Physics and Astronomy – University of Bologna Silvia Puca Italian Civil Protection Department outline • Satellite Application Facility on Support to Operational Hydrology and Water Management (H-SAF); • H-SAF Precipitation Products; • H-SAF PP application to severe event monitoring; • H-SAF PP validation; • H-SAF webpage and product download. H-SAF objectives • To provide operational high quality level 2/3 products and develop new satellite products from existing and future satellites with time and space resolution to satisfy the needs of operational hydrology: o precipitation (liquid, solid, rate, accumulated); o soil moisture (large-scale, local-scale, surface, roots region); o snow parameters (cover, melting conditions, water equivalent). • To perform independent validation of the products for civil protection purposes (floods, landslides, avalanches), and for monitoring water resources. The activity includes: o downscaling/upscaling from observed/predicted fields to basin level; o fusion of satellite measurements with data from radar and raingauge networks; o assimilation of satellite-derived products in hydrological models; o assessment of the impact of the satellite-derived products on hydrological applications. H-SAF plan H-SAF Development Phase (2005-2010), completed on August 31, 2010. Continuous Development and Operation Phase (CDOP) (2010-2017): - CDOP-1 (2010-2012) ended in February 2012. To improve algorithms and processing scheme for H-SAF area (25°N to 75°N - 25°W to 45°E) ; - CDOP-2 March 2012 – February 2017. To extend algorithms and validation to Full Disk area and to new satellites. All the products are being generated routinely for the H-SAF area on a H-SAF operational chain in NRT mode.

  • Interannual Variability of Mean and Extreme Rainfall and Relationship with Large-Scale Circulation
    Interannual variability of mean and extreme rainfall and relationship with large-scale circulation Malcolm Haylock A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Publication at the University of East Anglia December 2004 © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived therefrom, may be published without the author’s prior, written consent. Interannual variability of mean and extreme rainfall and relationship with large-scale circulation Malcolm Haylock 2004 Abstract Seven journal publications are presented documenting historical trends and interannual variability of mean and extreme rainfall. The seven studies cover diverse geographical regions including Australia, southeast Asia and the Pacific, Europe and South America. While two of the studies solely present trends in mean and extreme rainfall in recent decades, the remainder seek causes for the observed trends. The first paper explains the reduction in winter rainfall observed in recent decades in southwest Western Australia. Composites of sea level pressure reveal that during anomalously dry years there was a westward expansion of the continental anticyclone along with an intensification of the trough at higher latitudes, thus confining the rain bearing storms to the south of the continent. The second paper examines the seasonal dependence of the spatial coherence of Indonesian rainfall, showing that high coherence coincides with a strong relationship with the El Niño – Southern Oscillation phenomenon (ENSO). The third paper extends this work to cover the entire Maritime Continent, showing that the ENSO-affected region is strongly related to large-scale changes in the Pacific-wide ENSO related anomalies of sea surface temperature.

  • A New Perspective on the Supply and Demand of Weather Services
    sustainability Article A New Perspective on the Supply and Demand of Weather Services Cheol Han Bang and Choon Seong Leem * Department of Information & Industrial Engineering, Yonsei University, Seoul 03722, Korea; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 25 September 2020; Accepted: 27 October 2020; Published: 30 October 2020 Abstract: Despite efforts to estimate the demand for weather services, demand surveys that target only a few consumers with different interests have limitations in providing information about the market gap. This study proposes a method for reversing estimated demand trends by considering new value creation requirements such as national economic power or major industry types. Since no direct surveys of the actual status of services supplied through platforms for the weather service market exist, we investigated the web service status of both public (n = 193) and private (n = 144) sectors and established a weather service supply classification system. To analyze the global weather service demand environment, members of the World Meteorological Organization were classified according to their characteristics and compared with the supply status. The trend direction was suggested so that suppliers could provide services suitable for demand trends, and the corresponding significance was discussed. Keywords: weather service industry; service supply; demand trend; public and private sector; classification system 1. Introduction Due to increase of abnormal weather phenomena caused by climate change, damage from natural disasters has been expanding and its scale greatly increasing [1,2]. A recent Global Risk Report by the World Economic Forum warns that if our society fails to cope with these weather risks, it will be one of the worst tragedies of this era [3–5].
