1 QUADRENNIAL WORKSHOP PREVIEW
2 BACKGROUND The International Workshop on Tropical Cyclones (IWTC) was conceived in the early 1980 s by a small group of tropical cyclone meteorologists led by Professor William Gray who was also at the time engaged as a WMO project consultant. The goal was to organize a forum for forecasters and researchers from all regions affected by tropical cyclones to examine current knowledge, forecasting and research trends on this weather systems from an integrated global perspective. The idea was endorsed by WMO s ninth Congress (1983) and it s 35 th (1981) and 36 th (1984) Executive Council. Consequently, the first truly global gathering of all types of TC specialists representing all five TC regional bodies (currently with 85 Members) was held in Bangkok, Thailand in After 33 years, IWTC is now considered as one of one of WMO s major quadrennial workshop series. It is a special and unique gathering of tropical cyclone (TC) researchers and forecasters from all regions affected by tropical cyclones. The subsequent IWTCs followed a well-established model where an International Committee was set up to develop the workshop programme, select main topics to be discussed during the workshop and put together a group of experts to produce a preworkshop report. The pre-workshop report is a compilation of summaries of latest advances on tropical cyclone theory, analysis and applications. This extensive report, one of the hallmarks of the IWTC, is prepared by a team composed of topic chairs and rapporteurs ably assisted by working groups. The reviews are then collected to form the Pre-Workshop Report and is distributed to workshop participants before the actual event. Rapporteur reports includes forecast issues, examples of difficult forecast situations and recommendations on future research directions. The report also serves as the basis for the breakout discussions during the workshop. The IWTC has, through the years, essentially served to channel scientific advances and emerging technologies into operational tropical cyclone forecasting. Another noteworthy outcome of this workshop series is the establishment of better communication between tropical cyclone researchers and forecasters. More often than not, plans for future international co-operation between individuals and governments dealing with the tropical cyclone problem were also developed during the workshop. In-depth exchange of both practical and theoretical information and extensive discussions on the complex problems of tropical cyclones resulted in a number of useful recommendations concerning tropical cyclone forecasting, warning and research. The ninth workshop in this series will again be an international opportunity for forecasters and researches from around the world to summarize progress, discuss needs and requirements, and plan future advances primarily aimed of improving tropical cyclone forecasting and warning systems.
3 PREVIOUS IWTCs The IWTC celebrated it s 25 th anniversary in 2010 during the opening of the seventh workshop in the series on 15 November in Saint-Gilles les bains, La Réunion, France. Organized by the World Meteorological Organization s (WMO) World Weather Research Programme (WWRP) and Tropical Cyclone Programme (TCP) the workshop is a special and unique gathering of tropical cyclone researchers and warning specialists from all regions affected by tropical cyclones. IWTC aims to facilitate the exchange of information between tropical cyclone research scientists and operational weather forecasters. Discussions during the workshops resulted in a number of recommendations addressed to WMO, Tropical Cyclone forecasters, Research Community on needed actions to improve tropical cyclone forecasting and warning systems and reduce the associated risk and damages. These workshops not only enhanced knowledge of the nature and behaviour of this natural hazard, it also provided opportunities for prioritizing new observational data and research requirements.
