Reprint 1024 Recent developments and applications of the SWIRLS nowcasting system in Hong Kong
The Hong Kong Observatory’s nowcasting system SWIRLS (Short-range Warning of Intense Rainstorms in Localized Systems) has undergone a major upgrade to version 2 in 2010 with new and refined prediction algorithms, expanded warning support, as well as new weather services for the public. There are several special versions of SWIRLS that supported the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the 2010 Shanghai ...
متن کاملiCAST: A PROTOTYPE THUNDERSTORM NOWCASTING SYSTEM FOCUSED ON OPTIMIZATION OF THE HUMAN-MACHINE MIX
A prototype thunderstorm nowcasting system, tentatively named iCAST (interactive Convective Analysis and Storm Tracking), is being developed at Environment Canada with an emphasis on optimizing the ‘human-machine mix’. The prototype aims to build on the strengths of the human forecaster in the thunderstorm nowcasting process while making the best use of machine computing capabilities. iCAST is ...
متن کاملErad 2014 - the Eighth European Conference on Radar in Meteorology and Hydrology
Quantitative Precipitation Nowcasting (QPN) is one of the main applications of radar observations. On one hand, one of the most used nowcasting algorithms is Lagrangian extrapolation. It shows skill in specifying the timing and location of precipitation over short time periods, but shows low skill when using past precipitation trends to predict changes in precipitation intensity. On the other h...
متن کاملProbabilistic forecasting of shallow, rainfall-triggered landslides using real-time numerical weather predictions
A project established at the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) in New Zealand is aimed at developing a prototype of a real-time landslide forecasting system. The objective is to predict temporal changes in landslide probability for shallow, rainfalltriggered landslides, based on quantitative weather forecasts from numerical weather prediction models. Global weather for...
متن کاملActive tectonics of the Roudbar region: with special reference to the landslides of the area
The population of Rudbar in northern Iran, is due to Steep slopes of topography, Sloping Loose Materials, active tectonic phases, Construction of roads and railways, from areas prone to landslide events .In this reaserch, in the first phase, based on ground surveys, a geologic map of 1: 25,000, satellite images and other data of Rudbar region, range and status of landslides of the region were ...
