Примерная продолжительность выполнения: 2-2,5 часа. В этом курсе используются текст, интерактивная графика, исследования на конкретных примерах и упражнения для ознакомления с основными понятиями обслуживания прогнозами и предупреждениями с учетом воздействий. После прохождения этого курса вы будете лучше подготовлены к тому, чтобы помочь своей организации в продвижении подхода, основанного на воздействиях, в областях гидрометеорологического обслуживания, снижения риска бедствий и смежных областях.
As part of the Caribbean project funded by the Climate Risk and Early Warning Systems (CREWS) Initiative, this self-paced elearning course makes use of text, interactive graphics, case-studies and activities to introduce the use of the Potential Tropical Cyclone (PTC) advisory and associated forecast guidance from the United States National Hurricane Center (NHC).
This course is aimed primarily at the emergency management community, but it will also benefit forecasters in NMHSs.
Knowledge and actionable intelligence on weather, water and climate extremes are key to improve decision-making by disaster management, civil protection authorities and other stakeholders. Impact-based forecast and warning services (IBFWS) inform on the likelihood and severity of impacts to lives and property, considering exposure, and the physical, social, and economic dimensions of vulnerability to multi-hazards.
Knowing what the weather will do in terms of impacts, consequences and meaning, has more value for decision-making than simply knowing what the weather will be, i.e., a report on the predicted state and flux variables. Implementation of IBFWS supports the National Meteorological and Hydrological Services’ (NMHSs) efforts to increase value in service delivery.
The development of impact-based and impact forecasts entails the gathering of requirements, the establishment of infrastructure, technical development, operating and communication processes, and the identification of roles and responsibilities of all partners involved (WMO-No.1150 Part I and Part II). The main activities proposed for this workshop will address: Partnerships, training, recording of impacts, public awareness and education.
