This research progress of the clustering algorithms in meteorology in recent years is summarized in this paper. First, we give a brief introduction of the principles and characteristics of the clustering algorithms that are commonly used in meteorology. On the other hand, the applications of clustering algorithms in meteorology are analyzed, and the relationship between the various clustering a...

Various aspects of modern statistical physics and meteorology can be tied together. Critical comments have to be made. However, the historical importance of the University of Wroclaw in the field of meteorology should be first pointed out. Next, some basic difference about time and space scales between meteorology and climatology can be outlined. The nature and role of clouds both from a geomet...

This contribution presents first results of the DFG-funded research project TOSCA – “Towards an Optimal estimation based Snow Characterization Algorithm”. A unique combination of remote sensing instruments has been deployed at the Environmental Research Station Schneefernerhaus (UFS at 2650 m MSL) at the Zugspitze Mountain in Germany for deriving microphysical properties of falling snow. The UF...

I have been honoured by your President with a request that I would this evening address you upon the study of meteorology in its relations to that branch of etiological research which gives its designation to this Society. The compliment is one which I am conscious of not deserving in any way, and, while responding to it, I wish in all sincerity to start by disabusing your minds of any expectat...
