Description
Sub-seasonal to Seasonal Prediction: The Gap Between Weather and Climate Forecasting – eBook PDF
The Gap Between Weather and Climate Forecasting: Sub-seasonal to Seasonal Prediction (PDF) is an ideal reference for practitioners and researchers across the range of disciplines involved in the modeling, science, forecasting and application of this new frontier in sub-seasonal to seasonal (S2S) prediction. It provides an accessible, yet rigorous, introduction to the scientific principles and sources of predictability through the unique challenges of numerical simulation and forecasting with state-of-science modelling codes and supercomputers. Additional coverage includes the prospects for developing applications to trigger early action decisions to lessen weather catastrophes, minimize costly damage, and optimize operator decisions.
The ebook consists of a set of contributed chapters solicited from experts and leaders in the fields of S2S predictability science, numerical modeling, operational forecasting, and developing application sectors. The introduction and conclusion, written by the co-editors, provides historical perspective, unique synthesis and prospects, and emerging opportunities in this exciting, complex and interdisciplinary field.
