2. Issues & Targets • Implementation Targets • Global : mitigation - healthy Earth • Regional : disasters - early warning • National : adaptation - sustainability • Rural : emergence response - safety & stability • Farming : practices - productivity & economy Global Issues Climate change Economic Crisis WTO/FTA Climate Change Issues Uncertainty in prediction Intrinsic Variability Two sides of Coins 2 FEW Resources (too few) Food, Forest, Energy Water

3. Crucial Bottleneck at levels • Global : S & T Enhancement - resource mobilization • Regional : Collaboration - trans-boundary activity • National : Infrastructure - joint organization • Rural : Expertise - capacity building • Farming : Accessibility - diverse dissemination Implementation Strategy Global Fund raising , Restructuring Regional RA-specific AgMet program National Resource sharing system Rural Diverse E/T programs Farming Feasible communications

4. WMO Requirements http://www.wmo.int/pages/about/spla_en.html ER : Expected Results ST : Strategic Thrusts EC : Enhanced Capabilities Improving Service Quality/Delivery • EC for High Quality resources to meet user requirements • EC for Risk Management against natural hazards Advancing Science & Technology with Implementing Applications • EC for better meteorological information under climate change/variability • EC for earth system monitoring relevant to meteorological information • EC for active participation in global S & T development in meteorology Strengthening Capacity-building • EC to fulfill mandates in emerging members Establishing Closer Collaborations • Better partnership and cooperation at national & global levels Strengthening Good Governance • Effective and efficient Organization

6. Advancing S&T with Implementing Applications Better met. information under climate change/variability

7. Advancing S&T with Implementing Applications Active in global S & T development in meteorology

8. Strengthening Capacity-building Fulfill mandates in CB for emerging members GRID Portal Resource sharing Forecast-based AgMet Services for researcher / extension Benchmarking on AMBER (DWD), expanding with DSAT NCAR (GDAS, MM5), DWD (GME, LM) as NWPs Super ensemble of Seasonal Forecasts (APCC / KMA, etc.) GISC / DCPC dedicated to WAMIS will be established (NCAR, DWD) LIS (NASA) as a framework for LSM (GDS / LAS + GRID)

13. Implementation Plan • Submission of WIS-DCPC dedicated to WAMIS/CAgM • Collaborations with associated institutions in implementations • Restoration of WAMIS mirror server at KMA with advanced network (Giga bit) • Development of prototype user interface for Grid Portal • Case study on linkage between NWP output and Applications • Downscaling of NWP output to meet requirements from AgModels • Securing ICT resources to support WAMIS Grid Portal for resource sharing • Agreement on ICT resource support by KISTI for CAgM • KREONET (Giga LAN) was linked without any charge to NCAM • Linux Clusters and other computer resources will be arranged when needed • High volume of information storage will be provided with DBMS • Plan to make MoU among CAgM/KISTI/NCAM

14. Implementation Plan • Mobilizing Agricultural tools available for CAgM activities • DWD & KMA have a bilateral agreement on AMBER • Prof. Hoogenbum agreed on joint development of DSSAT as an open source • NARC/Japan is willing to provide JAVA based AgModels • Joint IT training program in AgroMeteorology for capacity building • KOICA is going to support for the expanded AgMet ICT training course • RTC-Nanjing made MoU on future joint training programs in AgMet • Seoul National University will provide training experts and facilities relevant • KMA is going to offer hosting of international training center for ICT training • MoU for Joint projects in AgroMeteorology with CAgM • NCAM/SNU & ESTC/Goerge-Mason made MoU on collaborations in AgMet 14

15. Contribution from Korea • KMA has been providing active support for East African member countries through its cooperation with WMO and KOICA. A variety of projects are currently under way. • These WMO-KOICA joint programs have been of invaluable help in facilitating KMA's own assistance projects for developing Members. • Information and Communication Technologies for Meteorological Service (since 2006) • Advanced Analysis of COMS (Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite) Data (since 2007) • Improvement of Meteorological Disaster Responsiveness for African Countries (since 2009)

16. Contribution from Korea • KMA-KOICA-WMO joint project on meteorological support for climate change adaptation and public health in East Africa (July 2009) • Development of a climate early warning system for 10 East African countries (2009-2010; USD 400,000) • Meteorological support for public health to prevent climate change associated spread of diseases such as malaria in Ethiopia and adjoining countries (2009-2010; USD 200,000) • Signing of MOU between the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) and the Intergovernmental Authority on Development's Climate Prediction and Applications Centre (ICPAC) and the National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs) of the 10 ICPAC member countries (April 2010).
