Weather and climate extremes can significantly impact the economics
of a region. This book examines how weather and climate forecasts
can be used to mitigate the impact of the weather on the economy.
Interdisciplinary in scope, it explores the meteorological,
economic, psychological, and statistical aspects of weather
prediction. Chapters by area specialists provide a comprehensive
view of this timely topic. They encompass forecasts over a wide
range of temporal scales, from weather over the next few hours to
the climate months or seasons ahead, and address the impact of
these forecasts on human behavior. Economic Value of Weather and
Climate Forecasts seeks to determine the economic benefits of
existing weather forecasting systems and the incremental benefits
of improving these systems, and will be an interesting and
essential text for economists, statisticians, and meteorologists.
