The Aristotle University of Thessaloniki will organize in cooperation with EUMETSAT the 6th Autumn School on the “Use of Satellite Data and Products for Severe Weather Nowcasting”, which will be held in Thessaloniki, Greece. The main objective of the training workshop is to present and explain to the participants the new developments in satellite meteorology focusing on the use of processes, principles and practices, tools and products for nowcasting and short-range forecasting severe weather such as storms, deep cyclones, severe precipitation, heat waves and droughts, based on meteorological satellite data.
Date: 24 - 28 September 2018
Location: Thessaloniki, Greece
Application Deadline: 9 July 2018
The call is intended to invited countries only!
The workshop is primarily aimed at participants from the south-eastern Europe and North African countries. The workshop will be held in English and there will be no registration fee.
Only one participant from each country will be accepted to attend the workshop. Meteorological Services and Offices are kindly requested to nominate a candidate.
The objectives of this course are to develop your skill in using data from EUMETSAT's Copernicus Marine Data Stream for surface analysis. We focus on the application of scatterometer data and data from Jason-3 and Sentinel-3
At the end of the course you will be able to:

Workshop setup
Participants will complete an online phase during which they will
The Pretoria workshop offered by EUMETSAT and will focus on project-based work with supporting presentations and group work on the application of satellite data to climate monitoring. We will use climate data of EUMETSAT's product portfolio (mainly CM SAF data) and free software tools (R - see http://www.cmsaf.eu/tools/ for further information; and R-Instat). During the workshop, the participants will have the opportunity to explore the use of satellite based climate data in their daily work.

APPLICATIONS CLOSED.
With the WMO/Vlab Centres of Excellence in training on satellite meteorology the European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT) will organise a training course for the benefit of the African meteorological user community. The course will be for English speaking participants.
The successful completion of the new Basic Satellite online module (at MetEd) is a pre-requisite for the online phase. Candidates will have time until the beginning of the online course to acquire the module certificate.
The online course will be delivered from 20 August - 21 September 2018.
The objective of the satellite applications training course is to optimise the use of data from meteorological satellites and to increase the knowledge and skills of meteorological trainers, contributing to improved forecasting.
Candidates should either be instructors in satellite meteorology, operational forecasters or satellite data users, with the ability to pass on skills acquired at the course to other operational staff.
The course is intended primarily for participants from Africa nominated by their Permanent Representatives with WMO. Depending on the seat availability, additional online participants can be accepted.
Application deadline: extended to 30 June 2018 .
