The third Workshop on Atmospheric and Coastal Observations for Weather Servicing (ACOWS 2024) was hosted by Prof. George LIU, Professor at the Department of Land Surveying & Geo-Informatics (LSGI) and member of Research Institute for Land and Space (RILS), at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) during 2-3 April 2025. This year’s theme, “Data Assimilation for a Better Weather Forecasting”, brought together experts to explore cutting-edge advancements in weather prediction methodologies.
Renowned scientists from Mainland China were invited to attend this Workshop and present their work. They are Prof. Jianhua SUN from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing; Prof. Yaodeng CHEN from the School of Atmospheric Sciences, Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology; Dr Yerong FENG, Director, from the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area Weather Research Centre for Monitoring Warning and Forecasting, Shenzhen; Dr Yuanfu XIE, Chief Scientist, from the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area Weather Research Center for Monitoring Warning and Forecasting, Shenzhen; Prof. Donghai WANG from the School of Atmospheric Sciences, Sun Yat-sen University; and Dr Chunqing SHANG, the Huawei Technologies Company.
Presentations focused on innovative approaches to “Forecasting of Heavy Rainfall using multi-source PWV data assimilation and ensemble prediction”, a work package being led by Prof LIU. Discussions highlighted the integration of multi-source data to enhance predictive accuracy and address climate resilience challenges. The Workshop fostered interdisciplinary collaboration, bridging academic research with operational weather servicing needs.
