2. eGY – Boulder – M. Petitdidier –March 2008 Enabling Grids for E-sciencE INFSO-RI-031688 Acute Questions for Earth Science Forecasting of meteorological events Extreme events: storm, tornado, hurricane, earthquake, tsunami… Water management: precipitations, flood, aquifer.. Pollution,,… => To provide real time information: real time data access, data assimilation and modelling Long term prediction : Climate Change Climatology i.e. trend of parameter variations like temperature, precipitations…. Polar ozone hole Impact on weather, agriculture… => Long series of multiple data sets, Intense processing, Discoveries and Dissemination of the knowledge How it works, Why…. These are Questions for Operational and Science organisations
