Regional Specialized Meteorological Center
A Regional Specialized Meteorological Centre ( RSMC abbreviated French Centre météorologique régional spécialisé CMRS ) is the meteorological service of a meteorological service, which is responsible by agreement of the Member States of the World Meteorological Organization, warnings, and notes on the respective program as part of the worldwide weather observations to create.
Tropical Cyclone programs
There are six such regional centers and five Tropical Cyclone Warning Centres that deal with the observation of and creating warnings of tropical cyclones:
- South West Pacific: RSMC Nadi - Fiji Meteorological Service in Nadi, Fiji
- Southwestern Indian Ocean: RSMC La Reunion - Météo France in Réunion, a French overseas department
- Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea: RSMC New Delhi - India Meteorological Department in New Delhi, India
- Western North Pacific Ocean with the South China Sea: RSMC Tokyo - Japan Meteorological Agency in Tokyo, Japan
- Middle North Pacific: RSMC Honolulu - Central Pacific Hurricane Center in Honolulu, Hawaii, United States
- Northeastern Pacific Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea and the North Atlantic: RSMC Miami - National Hurricane Center
Due to the historical development of weather observations, the formation of tropical cyclones is divided into seven areas of formation. These basins are the northern Atlantic, the eastern Pacific Ocean, the western Pacific, the southwestern Pacific, the southwestern Indian Ocean, the south-eastern Indian Ocean and the northern Indian Ocean. History tropical cyclones are indeed arisen in other places, such as Cyclone Catarina, because of their rarity, these events but no basins. Annually make on average 86 tropical cyclone systems, of which 47 reached wind speeds of a hurricane and 20 category 3 on the Saffir -Simpson Hurricane Scale.
Environmental Emergency Response Programs
There are eight meteorological centers for the prediction of the distribution, precipitation and pollutant composition in case of environmental disasters that cross the state borders:
- Exeter, UK: RSMC for Europe and Africa
- Toulouse, France: RSMC for Europe and Africa
- Montréal, Canada: RSMC for America and as a replacement device for the southwest Pacific
- Washington DC, United States: RSMC for America and as a replacement device for the southwest Pacific
- Beijing, People's Republic of China: RSMC for Asia
- Obninsk, Russia: RSMC for Asia
- Tokyo, Japan: RSMC for Asia
