Abstract
|
The 17th World Meteorological Congress (Geneva, June 2015) adopted Polar and High Mountain activities as a strategic priority (among 7 priorites) of the Organization for this financial period, 2016-2019. The presentation will explain about the development of the Global Cryosphere Watch (GCW), following relevant decisions and guidance of Cg-17, and particularly the core component observing systems of the GCW, i.e. CryoNet, which will rely heavily on satellite data telecommunication.
