Extended-range/subseasonal forecasts of the MJO. Medium-to-extended range extratropical forecasts derived from improved tropical weather/climate and tropical-extratropical interactions. Fundamental Science Questions What are the most crucial elements of the large-scale circulation that influence the development, organization and maintenance of tropical convection? Under what circumstances and with what mechanisms is energy and momentum transferred between the convective, mesoscale, synoptic scale, and the large/planetary scale? How does organized tropical convection interact with the extra-tropical circulation?

Technology Transfer & Capacity Building Disaster Prevention, Environmental Sustainability and Economic Competitivity Through Improved Forecasting Services & Applications WWRP-THORPEX Technology Transfer & Capacity Building Environmental Prediction Research

The nowcasting research priorities Improving nowcasting predictive skill and characterizing uncertainty; Promoting physically based nowcast prediction through high resolution model development and data assimilation; Developing improved observational capability in nowcasting; Characterizing observational errors and algorithm processing errors and their impact on nowcasting; and Improving automated nowcast processes, optimizing the role of humans and developing supporting systems for the rapid detection and effective dissemination of information.

Nowcasting Research focused on the detection and forecasting of weather over the 0-6 hour time frame. diverse user community: Emergency services, defence forces, security agencies, the transport industry, hydrologists, the agricultural community, recreational groups air quality agencies regularly
