State Hydrometeorology Institute 6-7 March Dushanbe 6-7 March Dushanbe Project «Modernisation of weather, climate and hydrological service delivery in Central Asia» (WCHSD CА)

Reasons for implementing WCHSD CА Economic losses due to Natural Hydrometeorological Disasters (NHD) average from 0.4 tо 1.3% of GDP in Central Asia; Therefore the requirement for high-quality weather, hydrological and climate services is of exceptional importance to stable development in the region. Проект «Модернизация гидрометеорологического обслуживания в Центральной Азии»

Reasons for implementing WCHSD CА Weather, climate and hydrological information is essential for: early warning for the population in the event of a natural disaster; optimisation of economic activities in sectors such as agriculture, transport, water management and hydropower. Проект «Модернизация гидрометеорологического обслуживания в Центральной Азии»

Reasons for implementing WCHSD CА The low technical and professional potential of National weather, climate and hydrological services (NWCHS) in Central Asia: a) obsolescent and unserviceable equipment; b) badly organised communications; c) an acute shortage of skilled staff. Проект «Модернизация гидрометеорологического обслуживания в Центральной Азии»

General aims of WCHSD CА Improving the quality of weather, climate and hydrological services in Central Asia; Developing and reinforcing interaction between NWCHS CА in the exchange of data, information and know-how for the restoration of infrastructure and professional potential; Reducing the risks of natural disasters, managing the consequences of climate change and promoting economic development in agriculture, the water resources sector, power engineering and transport throughout the region. Проект «Модернизация гидрометеорологического обслуживания в Центральной Азии»

Components of WCHSD CА A – A regional component, designed to reinforce all participating NWCHS (Republic of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz Republic, Republic of Tajikistan, Republic of Uzbekistan); B – Improvement of weather, climate and hydrological services in the Kyrgyz Republic; C – Improvement of weather, climate and hydrological services in the Republic of Tajikistan. Проект «Модернизация гидрометеорологического обслуживания в Центральной Азии»

Component С : Improvement of weather, climate and hydrological services in the Republic of Tajikistan Aim: Reduction of risks arising from NHD to human life and the economy of the country Funded by the World Bank from two sources: the International Development Association and the Pilot Programme for Climate Resilience Проект «Модернизация гидрометеорологического обслуживания в Центральной Азии»

Subcomponent С.1 Institutional strengthening of the Tajik Weather, Climate and Hydrological Service (Tadzhikgidromet), including the raising of professional potential, and financial stability models, by: a) technical support and training of personnel; b) devising and approving the essential business model for the provision of commercial weather, climate and hydrological services in the Republic of Tajikistan; c) renewal of the scientific methods basis of Tadzhikgidromet operations to bring them into line with the standards of the World Meteorological Organization. Проект «Модернизация гидрометеорологического обслуживания в Центральной Азии»

Subcomponent С.2 Improving the system of weather, climate and hydrological monitoring ensuring timely warning of catastrophic and dangerous phenomena and water resources management by: a) equipping and restoring weather, hydrological and agrometeorological observation points and avalanche observation networks; b) creation, restoration and/or upgrading of national weather, climate and hydrological data collection centres; c) improving forecasting systems. Проект «Модернизация гидрометеорологического обслуживания в Центральной Азии»

Subcomponent C.3 Improving the system of service provision by Tadzhikgidromet by: a)perfecting weather, climate and hydrological services from Tadzhikgidromet, including client access to data and data-processing products; b) specialised training for the personnel who provide the services.
