Extended Range Prediction

Objectives

  • To develop an extended range prediction system having reasonable skill beyond 2 weeks.
  • To carry out basic research in understanding complex interactions between different ocean-land-atmosphere processes to improve the predictability and forecast skills of coupled dynamical models.
  • To generate customised forecast products for sector-specific applications. 
  • To develop post-processing techniques to improve the prediction of extreme weather events like cyclones, heat waves, cold waves and heavy rainfall events.
  • Application of AI/ML techniques to improve the extended range prediction skill up to 4 weeks.
