The Group serves as a main science advisory and cooperative body to APCC researchers for successful implementation of APCC research and services.
|
The Working Group consists of representatives from the National Hydro-Meteorological Services (NHMSs) of all APEC member economies and participating institutions. The Working Group members facilitate the exchange of regional climate information, particularly climate prediction among APEC member economies. The group works closely with the Climate Research Department of APCC for the improvement of multi-model ensemble (MME) forecasting system and for the development of new forecast application areas. The members are listed below.
