HIWeather research aims to build resilience to weather-related hazards through better preparedness.
Despite advances in forecasting and emergency preparedness, weather-related disasters continue to cost many lives, to displace populations and to cause widespread damage.
HIWeather seeks to:
The workshop will focus on hazards and impacts that result from disruptive winter weather, extreme localized winds, wildfires, urban flood, as well as urban heat and air quality. The workshop will be guided by the question of how the value of warnings can be increased.
Applications for workshop participation from all scientists who are working in any of the above-mentioned research areas are invited by 17 September 2018.
