– Guidelines for floods, droughts, tropical cyclones and storm
surges and other meteorological hazards underway
Initiatives underway for standardization
of hazard information
for Floods, Droughts, Meteorological Hazards
1. Flood hazard data and mapping guidelines
(underway)
2. Drought assessment and mapping (underway)
3. Storm Surge hazard data and mapping
(underway)
4. Other meteorological hazards data and
mapping guidelines (initiated (March 2009)
• Severe Weather, Heat waves, Tropical
Cyclones
5. Tools to assess evolution of hazard trends in
the future …(next step)

developing in the field of Early Warning Systems.
Systematic documentation of good practices
in Multi-Hazard Early Warning Systems
• Four good practices in Multi-Hazard EWS
Documented
Cuba, France, China/Shanghai, Bangladesh
• Guidelines on “Capacity Development in MultiHazard EWS with focus on Institutional Coordination
and NMHS,” nearly finalized
• Training package being published (Springer Verlag
2010)
Training workshops on Multi-Hazard Early
Warning Systems (2009-2010)
Focus: Institutional cooperation and coordination
Targeting: Directors of Disaster Risk Management and National
Metrological and Hydrological Services
Programme:
• Training on good practices in EWS
• Training in guidelines on « Capacity development in MultiHazard Early Warning Systems with Focus on Institutional
Coordination, Cooperation”
• Interactive discussions to assess participating countries capacities,
gaps and needs
• Opportunities for regional cooperation
• Outcomes are linked to development projects

Requirements for Meteorological and Hydrological
information to support Financial Risk Transfer Dec
2007, WMO Headquarters
Participants: (8 re-insurers, 13 Met Services, WFP, World Bank, UNDP, WRMA)
USER Perspectives:
•
•
Information (data and forecasts):
–
Availability and accessibility of historical and real-time data
–
Data quality assurance, filling data gaps, Other data value-added services (??)
–
Reliability, authoritative and timeliness of data (for contract design and settlement)
–
Medium-term Weather and Seasonal Forecasts (portfolio management and forward looking risk
analysis)
–
Long term trend analysis (long-term market development strategy)
Technical support and Service delivery
Meteorological Services Perspectives:
•
Need for awareness raising among Met services
•
Resources, ability and priorities to deliver
•
“Commercial” ,“Security” and “Turf” Issues associated with data accessibility

Developing Tools and Training on
Climate Forecasting and Analysis
tools
Statistical analysis of historical data
is only first estimate . Needs for
forward looking information to
augment statistical hazard analysis
and mapping
Impact of climate on sectors are linked to….
• Changing patterns of hydro-meteorological extremes
– Frequency, severity and location of droughts, floods,
tropical cyclones, heat waves, etc
• Accumulation of risk linked to deviations of
meteorological and hydrological conditions from
normal
– Variations and changes in the onset of seasons,
changes in the rainfall amounts and patters, etc.
Emerging Technologies (Weather and
Climate Time Scales)

Medium-Range

 Forward looking risk analysis for improved
planning and risk managment
 Utilization in the financial risk transfer markets

Climate variability and change
and their impacts are not uniform

Global/Regional/National Cooperation
Framework For Provisions of Climate Services
Four Major Thrusts:
• Understanding of information needs of at-risk sectors
– Through partnerships (with UN, international and regional
agencies)
• Designation and coordination of network of global and
regional climate centers
– to faciliate provision of forecasting and analysis tools and
information to national centers
• Strengthen observation networks
• More targeted climate research
