Introduction
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) convened, under the auspices of the Commission for Weather, Climate, Hydrological, Marine and Related Environmental Services and Applications (SERCOM), the Aeronautical Meteorology Scientific Conference. The conference was held at the WMO Headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland from 21 to 25 October 2024.
Conference Information
The main objective of the conference was to showcase scientific and technological advances in meteorological observations and forecasts, expand focus on the integration of meteorological information decision-support services into the global air traffic management system, and examine further the impacts of climate change and variability on aviation.
The theme of the conference was:
“Aviation, weather and climate: scientific research and development for enhanced aeronautical meteorological services in a changing climate.”
The conference comprised a blend of presentations, national and regional case studies and panel discussions, taking into account leading scientific/academic research and aviation industry best practices and developments. Poster sessions also took place throughout the week. The session themes included:
- Session 1 - Science underpinning meteorological observations, nowcasting and deterministic and probabilistic forecasts
- Session 2 - Impact-based information and decision support services for aviation
- Session 3 - Science to understand the impacts of climate change on aviation and aviation environmental issues
The conference was an in-person only event and was conducted entirely in English.
