The 22nd IHP Training Course

We are pleased to announce that UNESCO Office Jakarta, in collaboration with the School of Internet Asia and CONNECT-Asia, will open opportunities for e-learning participants to join the 22nd UNESCO - IHP Training Course on 

"PRECIPITATION MEASUREMENT FROM SPACE AND ITS APPLICATIONS"

Precipitation is one of the major components of the Earth climate system. Precipitation has also a big impact as a major fresh water resource to the ecosystem and human activity. Thus, observation of precipitation distribution is crucial not only for understanding and predicting changes of precipitation under the current global climate change but also for human activities. Global or even locally, precipitation observation is, however, difficult, because it has large spatiotemporal variations.

The course is composed of a series of lectures and practice sessions which will introduce the basics of precipitation retrieval from space and current global precipitation maps and include the accuracy. Examples of global precipitation maps from space will be demonstrated. Practices are for learning skills to utilize the precipitation maps.

CONNECT-Asia will broadcast several lectures through video conference system and SOI Asia live streaming website. Below is the schedule.
