Meteorology is by nature a multidisciplinary and transnational
subject and COST cooperation has proved to be a flexible and
suitable framework at European level for meteorological activities
such as the standardisation of observation techniques and
harmonised transmission of meteorological data. Although
meteorology is not covered by a specific Community programme as
such, various Community actions dealing with meteorology are now
included in the EEC research programme on climatology (the "EPOCH"
programme - 1989-92) of mechanisms of extreme and sudden concerning
particularly the study meteorological events, in order to predict
catastrophies and consequently to reduce human and material losses.
In the context of COST cooperation, which is supported by the
Commission of the European Communities, the COST 73 project
(1986-1991) associates 16 countries in Western Europe with the aim
of setting up a weather radar network providing real-time
measurements of rain, snow or hail precipitations. In this project,
radar data are transmitted and combined if appropriate with
satellite data - in one or more "compositing centres" of the
participating countries, in order to improve weather forecasting.
Together with the COST 73 Management Committee, the Commission of
the European Communities organized a seminar on this matter, in
Brussels on 5-8 September 1989, at the half-way stage of the
project.
