Weather Forecasting covers the whole process of forecast production, from understanding the nature of the forecasting problem, gathering the observational data with which to initialise and verify forecasts, designing and building a model (or models) to advance those initial conditions forwards in time and then interpreting the model output and putting it into a form which is relevant to customers of weather

In spite of the inability of
weather models to

weather forecasting has improved and proven the hypothesis that complex systems can be understood based on sets of mathematical rules,
models are being increasingly used for a wide array of applications, from predicting global warming to determining the fate of pollutants released
into the groundwater.
