Dr. Lei-Ming Ma, PhD from Nanjing University, China, is currently Professor/Senior researcher of Shanghai Meteorological Service/China Meteorological Administration, and also a joint professor of East China Normal University. Dr. Ma’s research mainly focuses on numerical weather prediction and artificial intelligence (machine learning) for weather forecast. He has published on a range of topics regarding numerical prediction on tropical cyclones, severe convection, satellite data assimilation, convective parameterization, and radar data machine learning, etc. His current research project pertains to the advanced numerical prediction technologies for severe weather systems, and urban meteorological/atmospheric environmental hazards in response to the climate change and its interaction with meso-scale processes.

Although the technology of observation and prediction of atmospheric systems draws upon many common fields, until now the interrelatedness and interdisciplinary nature of these research fields have scarcely been discussed in one volume containing fundamental theories, numerical methods, and operational application results. This is a book to provide in-depth explorations of the numerical methods developed to better understand atmospheric systems, which are introduced in eight chapters. Chapter 1 presents an efficient algorithm for tropical cyclone center determination by using satellite imagery. Chapter 2 aims to identify atmospheric systems with a new polarization remote sensing method. Chapters 3-8 place emphasis on enhancing the performance of numerical models in the prediction of atmospheric systems that should be valuable for researchers and forecasters.
