The Consortium for Advanced Data Assimilation Research and Education (CADRE), funded by NOAA, is revolutionizing weather forecasting through cutting-edge data assimilation research and workforce development. By integrating observations with numerical models, CADRE provides an evolving picture of the Earth system, crucial for accurate weather and climate predictions. This $6.6 million initiative, led by the University of Oklahoma and involving six universities, aims to enhance NOAA's numerical weather prediction systems, improving the accuracy of extreme weather forecasts and climate response strategies. CADRE's innovative approach leverages artificial intelligence, new observation platforms, and advanced mathematics to push the boundaries of data assimilation science.
Researchers from the Hydrometeorology and Remote Sensing (HyDROS) Laboratory at the University of Oklahoma published a review synthesizing 50 years of geostationary satellite meteorology, from the launch of the first Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES-1) in 1975 to the present-day GOES-19.
With funding from NASA, Steven Cavallo is leading a global study of how small disturbances in the polar tropopause, a region roughly 30,000 feet above Earth’s surface, eventually grow into massive winter storms impacting millions.
A newly funded research project led by David Schvartzman will use trailblazing technology to transform understanding of lightning and electrification, helping to improve storm warnings and better assess the risk of structural damage and power outages from thunderstorms.
