Space-based Weather and Climate Extremes Monitoring (SWCEM)
It is recognized that there is a need to better utilize and improve the monitoring of weather and climate extremes from space. Stakeholders to pursue this objective include satellite operators, WMO Regional Climate Centres (RCCs), National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs) and other relevant institutes. The pivotal role to be played by WMO was the reason to give visibility of the Space-based Weather and Climate Extremes Monitoring (SWCEM) to WMO members in accordance with the SWCEM Implementation Plan approved in the Eighteenth World Meteorological Congress (Cg-18) in June 2019.
