We present a new method of reducing the error in predicted wind speed, thus enabling better management of wind energyfacilities. A numerical weather prediction model, COSMO, was used to produce 48 h forecast data every day in 2008 athorizontal resolutions of 10 and 3 km. A new adaptive...

Seven adaptive approaches to post-processing wind speed forecasts are discussed and compared. 48-hour forecasts are run at horizontal resolutions of 7 km and 3 km for a domain centred over Ireland. Forecast wind speeds over a two year period are compared to observed wind speeds at seven synoptic...

IFKIS-Hydro is an information and warning system for hydrological hazards in small- and medium-scale catchments. The system collects data such as weather forecasts, precipitation measurements, water level gauges, discharge simulations and local observations of event-specific phenomena. In...
