WMO Technical Progress Report on

the Global Data-Processing and Forecasting System (GDPFS)

and Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) Research

List of contributions received since 2001, with link to the most recent report

INTRODUCTION

Following a recommendation of some members, as a measure to avoid duplication of efforts, it was agreed to combine two important reports - the Annual WWW Tecnical Progress Report on the Global Data-Processing and Forecasting System (GDPFS) and the Annual Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) Progress Report - into one, starting with the report for the year 2005.

This new combined annual publication will serve as a means of updating the rapidly evolving facilities, research and services being implemented at GDPFS/NWP Centres as requirements and technology advance.

It will also provide to operational experts and researchers up-to-date information on the status of implementation of operational equipment and related facilities including analysis-forecast systems at the GDPFS/NWP Centres, as well as their research and development efforts in the area of understanding of physical processes, models and techniques for operational numerical weather prediction.
