Research areas – Meteorology
Within the SMHI meteorological research there are five strategically important research areas. Within these areas, we have increased the focus that drives research and development forward and increases the social benefit of the results.
The five research areas focus around questions that bring great benefit to SMHI's operations and to society.
Atmospheric chemistry and air pollution models
Focus on atmospheric physical and chemical processes
Climate monitoring and research using remote sensing
More climate knowledge from satellite and radar
Nowcasting and remote sensing
New types of data to short-term forecasts
Atmospheric and surface processes
Research for more accurate forecasts
Urban climate and air quality
Heat and air quality in cities
