The research area focuses on remote sensing, above all satellite data, to study processes in the atmosphere and to evaluate and improve models to create a better understanding of climate and climate change.

The research area includes development and improvement of SMHI's model system MATCH regarding atmospheric physical and chemical processes, with the aim of using the same model system on different scales – hemisphere, regional and urban background – as well as with chemistry and aerosol descriptions …

The phytoplankton diversity was high at all stations along the Swedish west coast. Diatoms dominated in cell numbers and Pseudosolenia calcar-avis was common. In Skagerrak the potentially toxic dinoflagellate Dinophysis acuta* was common. The coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi was found in high cell …

Surface and near-surface aspects of the weather forecasts are often given great attention since they affect many people in a very direct way. The research area will continue the development of processes, data assimilation and methods to improve the NWP system and, in the long run, the weather …

The focus of this research and development area is to get the most out of the current and soon operationally available new satellite and radar data for the improvement of Nowcasting and Early Warning at SMHI.

General description of SAML2 WebSSO

Polluted air affects your health - especially if you are a child, elderly or belong to a risk group. At SMHI, researchers and air quality experts are now developing a new methodology for calculating how much air pollution the population is exposed to, both now and in the future, in cities and in …

The phytoplankton diversity and total cell counts were low in the Kattegat and Skagerrak areas, except at Släggö where the diversity was a bit higher. The toxic species Dinophysis acuta* was found in relatively high cell numbers at Släggö. The diatom Proboscia alata was common at all stations along …
