experience again with Meteosat Third Generation (MTG). Over its lifetime it has helped us gain insights into the behaviour of many types of severe weather, and also various environmental phenomena such as dust storms, volcanoes and other hazards to aviation and public safety. In addition Meteosat-8 has

However, in remote drought-prone cross-border regions the use of weather and climate information to combat the negative

The third part, on the farmers response, encompasses their level of understanding and capacity to respond, and must acknowledge the costs of taking action to mitigate negative impacts even though such impacts are not certain to occur.

The observed trend of mean sea level rise recorded at Karachi tide gauge station was the dataset used by most studies in this review. The value of this trend was calculated at 1.1 mm/yr from 1916 to 2000 (Quraishee 1988; NOAA 6

With the launch of the EUMETSAT’s Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) satellite in late 2021, the new MTG-Flexible Combined Imager (FCI), Infrared Sounder (IRS) and Lightning Imager (LI) will serve as additional

By the 5th, most of central and south-east England had already received two-thirds or more of the whole-month average rainfall. However, fortunately after
