This year the focus will be on subjects of growing interest in the research and operational community, such as atmospheric rivers and downbursts, analysed in a changing climate context.
Target audience
The school is primarily addressed to PhD, Master students in atmospheric sciences and post-doc researchers and operational forecasters from regional and national meteorological agencies.
