  2. College of DuPage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/College_of_DuPage

    College of DuPage is a public community college with its main campus in Glen Ellyn, Illinois. [3] The college also owns and operates satellite campuses in Addison, Carol Stream, Naperville and Westmont. [4] [5] With more than 20,000 students, the College of DuPage is the second largest provider of undergraduate education in Illinois, after ...

  3. Lemon technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemon_technique

    Lemon technique. The Lemon technique is a method used by meteorologists using weather radar to determine the relative strength of thunderstorm cells in a vertically sheared environment. It is named for Leslie R. Lemon, the co-creator of the current conceptual model of a supercell. [1] The Lemon technique is largely a continuation of work by ...

  4. Numerical weather prediction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_weather_prediction

    The ENIAC main control panel at the Moore School of Electrical Engineering operated by Betty Jennings and Frances Bilas. The history of numerical weather prediction began in the 1920s through the efforts of Lewis Fry Richardson, who used procedures originally developed by Vilhelm Bjerknes to produce by hand a six-hour forecast for the state of the atmosphere over two points in central Europe ...

  5. Global Forecast System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Forecast_System

    The GFS model is a FV3 model with an approximate horizontal resolution of 13 km for the days 0-16 days. In the vertical, the model is divided into 127 layers and extends to the mesopause (roughly ~80 km), and temporally, it produces forecast output every hour for the first 120 hours, [1] three hourly through day 10, and 12 hourly through day 16.

  6. Weather forecasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather_forecasting

    t. e. Weather forecasting is the application of science and technology to predict the conditions of the atmosphere for a given location and time. People have attempted to predict the weather informally for millennia and formally since the 19th century.

  7. History of numerical weather prediction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_numerical...

    Operational numerical weather prediction in the United States began in 1955 under the Joint Numerical Weather Prediction Unit (JNWPU), a joint project by the U.S. Air Force, Navy, and Weather Bureau. [12] The JNWPU model was originally a three-layer barotropic model, also developed by Charney. [13]

  8. Bayesian structural time series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayesian_structural_time...

    Bayesian structural time series. Bayesian structural time series ( BSTS) model is a statistical technique used for feature selection, time series forecasting, nowcasting, inferring causal impact and other applications. The model is designed to work with time series data. The model has also promising application in the field of analytical marketing.

  9. Tropical cyclone forecast model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Tropical_cyclone_forecast_model

    A tropical cyclone forecast model is a computer program that uses meteorological data to forecast aspects of the future state of tropical cyclones. There are three types of models: statistical, dynamical, or combined statistical-dynamic. [1] Dynamical models utilize powerful supercomputers with sophisticated mathematical modeling software and ...
