  1. WMO World Meteorological OrganizationWorking together in weather, climate and water • THORPEX Legacy and Options for a Follow on Programme • THORPEX ICSC-10 WMO; Research www.wmo.int

  2. 3 (+1) Options for Post THORPEX • Option A • Ends in 2014 • Option B • Continues with similar focus • Option C • Establishs a new Programme with embedded Projects • Option D • All Projects under WWRP without a new Programme

  3. Comments received • 18 comments received • 4 JSC members • 1 ICSC member • 4 THORPEX WGs and WG member • 2 RCs • 5 Op Centers, including US THORPEX EC • 2 Int. Programmes

  4. Analysis Summary • 12 responses explicitly favoured option C • S2S and PPP strongly supported, but not enough by themselves • 10 responses wanted a strong focus on HIW • Calls to strengthen links to Academic Community • Majority wanted focus on hours/days to weeks • 2 responses proposed the adoption of a bold vision around seamless prediction • Partnership between WWRP and WCRP proposed by some • A number of proposals made for future shape of WWRP • Only 3 responders willing to commit financially • However, the devil is in the detail !

  5. Some Possible Discussion Items • Need a New WCRP/WWRP Programme as a time-limited project? • Environmental Prediction Initiative • Predicting Weather and Climate Extremes • What time ranges do we cover in the Programme? • Need a HIW project in addition to PPP, S2S? • High-impact Weather Prediction Project? • Agree with the concept of “standing WG and time-limited project” in WWRP? • Agree to establish two new standing WGs, supported by the WWRP regular budget? • DAOS • Predictability and Ensembles • Agree to replace the RCs with regional initiatives/projects?
