New Met Office breakthrough' weather model to deliver more accurate forecasts
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"The Advanced Ensemble Networked Assimilation System has been described as a major breakthrough for UK atmospheric science. Science minister Sir Patrick Vallance said: "Once again, cutting-edge British innovation is making a remarkable difference to our daily lives - this time from way up in the atmosphere. "This is a really exciting example of how better understanding of what's happening in space can protect the tech we all rely on, from GPS on our phones to keeping the power grid working.""
The Independent requests donations to fund on-the-ground reporting on reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech while keeping coverage free of paywalls. Donations support sending journalists to gather multiple perspectives and fund open-access journalism. The Met Office has deployed a UK-built suite of space weather forecasting models that predict impacts on satellites, aviation, communications and services dependent on global navigation satellite systems. The models run on a new Met Office supercomputer and focus on the upper atmosphere. The Advanced Ensemble Networked Assimilation System was built at the University of Birmingham and is described as a major breakthrough that helps protect GPS, phones and the power grid.
