Numerical Problems Connected with Weather Prediction
1985Large scale atmospheric motions can propagate on vastly different time scales. The time scale of the so called Rossby waves which describe the “weather”is of the order of a day while inertia-gravity waves can have time scales of order] 0 sec. Meteorologically the main interest is in the first type of motion.

Abstract This article is addressed to the layman with a science education. It is thus not addressed specifically to the meteorologist, but it contains certain information about the weather services, and the impact of numerical weather prediction on them, that I believe will interest those in the meteorological community who have not had close ...

The weather is of vital importance to life on this planet. A sudden violent storm may cause loss of life, damage to property and great economic loss. A drought in one country may have political repercussions in other countries also. Agriculture and industry, shipping and aviation, communication and recreation are all fields of human activity that would

Numerical weather prediction (NWP) entails the use of computer models of the atmosphere to simulate how the state of the atmosphere is likely to evolve over a period of several hours up to 1 or 2 weeks ahead. This approach is central to modern operational weather forecasting: it is the improvements in NWP systems that have led to continual improvements

Numerical weather prediction for GATE
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 1979AbstractThe results of a few numerical weather prediction experiments that utilize GATE data are presented. Aside from some simple forecasts based on single‐level models, experiments with a multilevel model examine the roles of some of the physical processes.

Operational numerical weather prediction
Reviews of Geophysics, 1987A variety of analysis and forecast systems have been used routinely over the years to produce numerical weather predictions (NWP) for daily use. The Joint Numerical Weather Prediction Unit of the United States was the first operational organization established in 1955.

An Overview of Numerical Weather Prediction
1986Starting with the first barotropic model experiments of Charney and Von Neumann in 1950 (Charney et al., 1950), numerical models of the atmosphere have developed into the primary means by which forecasters are able to predict synoptic-scale weather beyond 6 h.
