Session 2 |
Background and Review of Major Hazards and Forecasting Capacities | |
Overview of the DRR initiatives in Central America and the Caribbean |
||
| Objectives and structure of the Technical Meeting – Peter Chen, WMO |
||
Regional cooperation in forecasting - lessons learned from regional cooperation in the WMO Severe Weather Forecasting Demonstration Project (SWFDP) in other regions and Tropical Cyclone Cooperation in RA IV |
||
|
||
|
||
| Outcomes of consultations in RA IV pertaining to priority meteorological, hydrological and marine-related hazards and needs for forecasting capacity development - Juan Carlos Fallas Sojo – Chair of WMO RA IV DRR Task Team |
||
Session 3 |
Review of Latest Forecasting Capacities, Tools and Technologies for Meteorological, Hydrological And Marine-Related Hazards | |
| Latest meteorological tools and technologies for forecasting severe weather and other meteolrogical conditions (e.g. tropical cyclones, heavy rainfall, high winds) - Jean Noel Degrace, Météo-France |
||
| Latest tools and technologies for forecasting hydrological hazards (e.g. flash flooding, riverine flooding) - W. Jubach, Hydrologic Research Center |
||
| Latest tools and technologies for forecasting marine and coastal hazards (e.g. storm surge, costal inundation, high impact oceanic swells - Daniel Brown, U.S. National Weather Service |
||
Session 4 |
Global and regional centres and other institutions that could contribute to the development of technical forecasting capacities in RA IV | |
| Technical capacities, forecast and satellite products and services available through USA Centers (RSMC-Miami Hurricane Center, NCEP, satellite data and products such as for heavy precipitation estimation, etc) - Bill Read, Chairman of the Wmo RA IV Hurricane Committee |
||
| Technical capacities, forecast and satellite products and services available through Météo-France and ECMWF - Jean Noel Degrace by Météo-France |
||
| Technical capacities, training, products and services available through CIMH – Dr. David Farrell |
||
Requirements for various observations for real-time monitoring and forecasting of priority hazards through various platforms and synergies across existing projects (e.g., Carib HYCOS, CARIB WIGOS) to support nowcasting and forecasting of various hazards |
||
|
||
|
