Weather Science

From the crystalline perfection of the snowflake to the transfer of energy from the Sun, science lies at the heart of the weather and our understanding of it. In recent years, weather science has moved to the leading edge with advanced modelling, versatile use of satellite data and a better understanding of mathematical chaos. This is a true example of hot science at work.

Le proiezioni delle previsioni dei vari parametri meteorologici a livello globale indicano un costante miglioramento delle prestazioni dei modelli numerici. La percentuale degli errori è in graduale decremento, grazie alle rinnovate capacità di calcolo di computer sempre più potenti. Nel 2020 si sono raggiunti i 7 giorni utili di previsione, un traguardo ragguardevole se sì pensa che negli anni 90 del secolo scorso ad esempio nella previsione dell'altezza del geopotenziale a 500 hPa si raggiungevano appena i 4 giorni.

La vita e l'organizzazione di raccolta dati e previsioni in un' epoca in cui la meteorologia era ancora agli albori del suo sviluppo e i mezzi di rilevazione e indagine erano ancora rudimentali.
