    Abstract:

    The significant Progress of Chinese Antarctic operational meteorology has been made with the development Antarctic expeditions for the recent two decades. Two permanent stations in Antarctic area were established and named as the “Great Wall” and “Zhongshan”, respectively. The former has been operating since 1984 and the latter since 1989. The automatic weather station (LGB-69) was installed cooperated with Australian Antarctic Division in 2001, which is located on an ice sheet and far 160km from Zhongshan. A series of operational observations, including surface meteorology, real-time and site weather forecasting with high-resolution satellite data and atmospheric ozone and UV-B are carried out. Meteorology observations were made, and services of forecast were also conducted on the expedition vessel. Antarctic meteorology operation provided the original data for Antarctic study and meteorology service for Antarctic navigation and expedition. Therefore, it is a very important task for us to further improve operational meteorology of Antarctic expedition.
