Mission Statement |
| The Global Climate And Weather Modeling Branch conducts a program of research
and development in support of the National Centers for Environmental Prediction
(NCEP) operational forecasting mission for global prediction. This research
and development in global modeling includes four dimensional data assimilation
of satellite and conventional observations on a global scale, advanced
numerical techniques for modeling the atmosphere and interactions between
the atmosphere, ocean and land surfaces, parameterization of sub-grid scale
processes in the atmosphere, ocean and land surfaces, development of a
climate data assimilation system and reanalysis studies for archival and
use by the scientific community, international aviation product development,
diagnostic studies of global model performance, data quality control and
evaluation of new observing systems, and support for tropical prediction.
The Global Climate And Weather Modeling Branch publishes research results in various media
for dissemination to the world oceanographic and meteorological community. Please mail comments, questions, suggestions about the Global Climate And Weather Modeling Branch to the Branch Chief, Mark Iredell. Last changed 23 December 2005 |
