Integrated Ground-Based Observing Systems: Applications for Climate, Meteorology, and Civil Protection, 1st Edition

The book is a collection of the lectures delivered during the 7th International Summer School on Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences (ISSAOS) titled “Integrated Ground-Based Observing Systems Applications for Climate, Meteorology, and Civil Protection”. Its aim is to contribute to the scientific understanding of basic concepts and applications of integrated ground-based observing systems. The first part describes the most common instrumentations showing their strengths and limitations. Furthermore, strategic plans for the deployment of an observation site are discussed along with an overview of techniques for integrating heterogeneous data. The second part introduces cutting-edge applications, including assimilation in numerical weather prediction, climate benchmarking, air quality monitoring and meteo/hydrological warnings.\nIntegrated Ground-Based Observing Systems: Applications for Climate, Meteorology, and Civil Protection 1st Edition is written by Domenico Cimini; Frank S. Marzano; Guido Visconti and published by Springer. ISBNs for Integrated Ground-Based Observing Systems are 9783642129681, 3642129684 and the print ISBNs are 9783642129674, 3642129676.
