14. Thomas Everding, Marc Rautenhaus Toulouse, 23.11.2009 Summary Projects show applicability of SWE in various domains Meteorological phenomena have strong influence on other environmental phenomena – E.g. better weather forecasts allow better flooding forecasts Show applicability of SWE for meteorology Enhance SWE standards with requirements from the meteorological domain
