About 25 years after the first Meteosat weather satellite, the first of the second generation (MSG-1) is to be launched in August. With sophisticated new instruments on board, MSG-1 will change the way we observe the weather. MSG-1 has been developed by the European Space Agency, ESA, and built by Alcatel Space Industries in Cannes. To help them understand its advanced technology, ESA is offering the media an opportunity to enhance their knowledge about meteorology in general, forecasting techniques and the satellite's specifics. Media representatives are invited to Cannes in France for a seminar on 3 July. The new satellite can be seen in its clean-room environment, and scientists, engineers and mission experts will give thorough briefings on meteorology, forecasting techniques and climate research. The seminar will provide plenty of background information about weather and climate processes. Filming will be allowed and experts from ESA and Alcatel Space will be available for interviews.

Antarctic NWP and Forecasting Workshop Announcement June 4-5, 2002 NCAR Foothills Laboratory Boulder, CO Workshop Program> Schedule NCAR's Mesoscale and Microscale Meteorology Division and the Byrd Polar Research Center of the Ohio State University invite you to attend the Antarctic NWP and Forecasting Workshop at the NCAR Foothills Laboratory , Boulder, Colorado. The workshop is aimed to: (i) review the status of Antarctic weather forecasting and real-time modeling (with a focus on the Antarctic Mesocale Prediction System [AMPS], which supports operations of the U.S. National Science Foundation); (ii) serve as a forum for the presentation of current research and ideas related to Antarctic meteorology, NWP, and forecasting; and (iii) solicit feedback from the users of NWP systems and products covering Antarctica, including issues of model performance and support needs. The motivation for this workshop is the completion of the second season of the Antarctic Mesoscale Prediction System (AMPS) , a real-time mesocale modeling system which serves NSF's Antarctic operations. While there will be a few invited speakers, talks and extended abstracts are encouraged from all who would like to make an oral presentation on relevant work or experiences. The sessions will cover the following: (a) NSF's AMPS system: issues, performance, and user feeback; (b) Antarctic NWP research and forecasting efforts (including investigations of forecast events and modeled phenomena, polar atmospheric modeling, etc.); and (c) the role of Antarctic NWP and forecasting in the planned RIME (Ross Island Meteorology Experiment) project.

Fuller details of general University facilities and such topics as English language entrance requirements can be found in the University of Reading Undergraduate Prospectus Why study meteorology at University ? Meteorology is the science of the atmospheric environment. It involves the study of many different atmospheric phenomena which are not only of great scientific interest, but which are often of great importance to human society and its impact on the global ecology. Phenomena of interest to the meteorologist cover a considerable range of time and space scales, from the rapid formation of a tiny cloud droplet in moist air rising over a hill, to the variation over geological time scales of circulation features spanning the whole of the earth's atmosphere. The science of meteorology is directly relevant to important environmental issues such as global warming, ozone depletion, atmospheric pollution and energy resource management. This is apart from its obvious application to weather forecasting.

UNCA Catalog: Courses of Instruction UNCA Catalog: Table of Contents Atmospheric Sciences (ATMS) Professor Huang (Chair); Professor Brotak; Lecturer Quinlan The Atmospheric Sciences Department offers a B.S. degree in two concentrations that prepare students for employment immediately upon graduation or for further studies at the graduate level. Both concentrations fulfill federal Civil Service requirements for employment as a meteorologist. A Climatology concentration provides a strong preparation for graduate work with a specialization in climatology and mathematics. The National Climatic Data Center, located in Asheville, represents a unique resource for students. In the Weather Forecasting concentration, students learn the basics of weather analysis and forecasting and how to communicate meteorological information to the public. McIDAS, DIFAX, National Lightning Detection Network and LDM are utilized in courses with a lab component. Students are encouraged to focus their career objectives through enrollment in cooperative education and internship courses. Concentration in Climatology This concentration is designed to prepare a student for advanced work in Atmospheric Science with an emphasis on Climatology.

Unlike most previous cyclone forecasting schemes, this project relies primarily on dynamical predictions. The possibility of using AGCMs to forecast tropical cyclone landfall risk is being assessed, as this is the most useful aspect for society.
