Forecasting
TARL is developing forecasting and prediction capabilities focused on terrain-influenced atmospheric processes, observation-driven modeling, and research-based atmospheric guidance.
In Development
TARL is building the scientific, observational, and computational foundation required for terrain-aware atmospheric prediction. The forecasting program is intended to grow from TARL's research in atmospheric processes, field observation, instrumentation, and terrain diagnostics.
Rather than introducing forecasting products before the underlying systems are ready, TARL is developing these capabilities progressively through research, testing, observation, validation, and continued system development.
Forecasting Approach
TARL's forecasting work is intended to connect observations, physical processes, terrain characteristics, diagnostics, and predictive modeling into a unified approach to atmospheric prediction.
01
Developing forecasting approaches that account for how mountains, valleys, ridges, slopes, and other terrain features modify atmospheric behavior.
02
Connecting atmospheric observations, field measurements, and terrain diagnostics with predictive modeling to better understand evolving conditions.
03
Testing new approaches to atmospheric prediction through research-driven methods, diagnostics, and evolving predictive frameworks.
04
Translating physical understanding of terrain-atmosphere interactions into tools and methods that can eventually support improved prediction.
Future Capabilities
As TARL's research, observing systems, and computational capabilities develop, the forecasting program will expand around the scientific problems those systems are designed to address.

Integration of field and observational data
From Observation to Prediction
TARL's forecasting program is being developed alongside its research, field observation, instrumentation, and terrain diagnostics programs. Together, these capabilities provide the foundation for a more complete understanding of atmospheric behavior in complex environments.
Forecasting at TARL
Forecasting capabilities are currently under development as TARL continues building the research, observation, instrumentation, diagnostic, and modeling systems that support them.
