Abstract:
Four field programmes conducted in recent 5 years were reviewed.These field experiments were selected since they were designed to address the prediction problems of severe weather systems,such as torrential rain/flooding and strong winds. The concept of targeted or adaptive observation was established and tested operationally during the field experiments. The important improvement could be expected in the disaster weather prediction as the results of these field experiment, during which advanced sensors from different platforms with high spatial and temporal resolution recorded a lot of details of the truths in atmospheric movements that may not be properly understood yet. And even more, almost all these details collected in these field programmes could be shared through Internet.
