The APEC Climate Center (APCC) held a Virtual Bilateral Cooperation Meeting with Central Weather Bureau (CWB) on 6 October 2020 to discuss climate information utilization in the Asia-Pacific region.

 

The meeting discussed measures to improve the reliability of APCC’s climate prediction information and ways to promote the use of APCC’s climate information services in the Asia-Pacific region.

 

CWB also generates and provides climate information, which is sent and incorporated into APCC’s Multi-Model Ensemble (MME) climate information. CWB is also a user of APCC’s climate information services, making CWB a direct stakeholder in the production and provision of APCC’s climate prediction information.

At this bilateral cooperation meeting, CWB provided suggestions for improvements to APCC’s climate information contents and APCC provided suggestions to improve CWB’s climate model that is included in APCC's MME.

 

The meeting also allowed for discussions around APCC’s role and direction for expanding the use of climate information services in the Asia-Pacific region, as well as bilateral cooperation opportunities between APCC and CWB.

 

This virtual cooperation meeting allowed APCC and CWB to share, understand, and provide feedback on each organization’s planned improvements to their climate information in the future.

 

Through implementing some of the recommendations from this meeting, APCC's climate information service will enhance consumer confidence and satisfaction and increase the use of climate information in the Asia-Pacific Region. This will contribute to the utilization of climate information to prepare for extreme climate in the Asia-Pacific region and reduce human and property losses due to natural disasters.
