    SAMFUNNSØKONOMISK ANALYSE AV NORSK OFFENTLIG SATSING PÅ ROMVIRKSOMHET AV LEO A. GRÜNFELD, ANDERS M. HELSETH, TORI H. LØGE OG MAGNE AARSET RAPPORT NR. 21/2017, MARS Forord På oppdrag fra Nærings- og fiskeridepartement har Menon Economics i denne rapporten analysert om den norske satsingen på romvirksomhet er samfunnsøkonomisk lønnsom, og om innretningen er hensiktsmessig for å nå målene som er nedfelt i Meld. St. 32 (2012–2013). Arbeidet må anses som en videreføring og utvidelse av det vurderingsarbeid som ble utført av Menon Economics i 2016 knyttet til Norges deltakelse i ESAs frivillige romprogrammer og tilskuddsordningen «Nasjonale følgemidler». Analysen har vært ledet av Menons forskningsleder Leo Grünfeld. Vi har også hentet mye ut gjennom samarbeid med Magne Aarset i Terp AS. Vi takker departementet for et spennende oppdrag. Vi takker også Norsk Romsenter og en lang rekke intervjuobjekter for verdifull veiledning og kunnskapsformidling innen et felt som er teknisk og strukturelt komplisert å dekke. Forfatterne står ansvarlig for alt innhold og alle vurderinger i rapporten. ______________________ Oslo, mars 2017 Leo A Grünfeld Prosjektleder Menon Economics MENON ECONOMICS 1 Innhold FORORD 1 SAMMENDRAG 4 Kort om romsatsningen 4 Kort om problemer knyttet til samfunnsøkonomisk verdsetting 5 Vurdering av ulike alternativer 6 Kort om usikkerhet 8 1.

The ITWG continues to organise International TOVS Study Conferences (ITSCs) which have met approximately every 18 months since 1983. Through this forum, operational and research users of TIROS Operational Vertical Sounder (TOVS), Advanced TOVS (ATOVS) and other atmospheric sounding data have exchanged information on data processing methods, derived products, and the impacts of radiances and inferred atmospheric temperature and moisture fields on numerical weather prediction (NWP) and climate studies. The Fifteenth International TOVS Study Conference (ITSC-XV) was held at the Villa del Mare near Maratea, Italy from 4 to 10 October 2006. This conference report summarises the scientific exchanges and outcomes of the meeting. A companion document, The Technical Proceedings of The Fourteenth International TOVS Study Conference, contains the complete text of ITSC-XV scientific presentations. The ITWG Web site ( http://cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/itwg/ ) contains electronic versions of the conference presentations and publications.
