The Eumetnet SRNWP Program and the Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD) in cooperation with Italian Meteorological Service is pleased to announce the 2nd SRNWP-PEPS Workshop, to be held in Roma on December 12, 2007 from 14:00 to 19:00.

 

The SRNWP-PEPS workshop takes place right after the 3rd Workshop on Short Range EPS (10th-12th ) at the same location and is open to all the participants of this latter workshop. Information on travelling to Italy and accommodation in Rome is provided by http://www.meteoam.it.

 

Any specific issues you wish to discuss are welcome. The agenda is:

 

Ø      Verification

Ø      Calibrated forecast Products

Ø      Use of SRNWP-PEPS forecasts

Ø      Further developement

Ø      Operational and commercial use

 

The recent results of verification will be presented and the Ensemble Verification Toolbox will be introduced. The toolbox enables the contributing NWS to validate the SRNWP-PEPS system themselves according to their own needs. The status of the operational calibration system will be reported and an overview of the research activities using SRNWP-PEPS forecasts will be given.

 

Please do not hesitate to contact the SRNWP-PEPS team at DWD for any comments, remarks and questions.
