	Invest in Sweden Agency - Top marks for Swedish meteorology
		Swedish research in meteorological science is highly regarded and in many cases meets the highest international standards, according to a new report by a multinational panel of experts.
		The International Valuation of Meteorology, commissioned by the Swedish Research Council, was based on the findings of six leading meteorology specialists from the U.S., Germany, Norway and the Netherlands.
		The panel examined 23 Swedish meteorology research projects and concluded that 15 were either âoutstandingâ or âexcellentâ.

	Before 1955: Numerical Models and the Prehistory of GCMs
		The Meteorology Project ran its first computerized weather forecast on the ENIAC in 1950.
		The Royal Swedish Air Force Weather Service in Stockholm was first in the world to begin routine real-time numerical weather forecasting (i.e., with broadcast of forecasts in advance of weather).
		The Institute of Meteorology at the University of Stockholm, associated with the eminent meteorologist Carl-Gustaf Rossby, developed the model.

	CV for Sven Grahn
		Institute of Meteorology at the University of Stockholm
		The first job I did for the Institute was to work as a rocket assembly technician during the first sounding rocket launchings from Kronogård in Northern Sweden during the summers of 1962, 1963 and 1964.
		However, in close co-operation with the Swedish Institute of Space Physics and the Max-Planck Institut für extraterrestrische Physik the Freja magnetospheric mission was defined and in 1989 won sufficient financial support from the Swedish National Space Board and the German Ministry for Science and Technology.

		The Swedish Institute (SI) is a public agency entrusted with disseminating knowledge abroad about Sweden and organizing exchanges with other countries in the spheres of culture, education, research and public life in general.
		The Swedish Council of America (SCA) was founded in 1972 by four leading Swedish-American institutions: American Swedish Institute in Minneapolis, The American Swedish Historical Foundation in Philadelphia, the Swedish-American Historical Society in Chicago, and Detroit Swedish Council in Detroit.
		The institute is a research institute, subordinate to the Swedish Ministry of Education.

		So when journalists called at the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry in Mainz, Germany, where Crutzen is director of the Air Chemistry Division, they interviewed one of his senior colleagues instead.
		Crutzen emphasized the tropics in his Nobel lecture on the role of ozone on tropospheric chemistry presented at the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences last December.
		Crutzen is also working with Christoph Brühl, a colleague at the institute, to compare data on ozone and chlorine and fluorine species in the stratosphere obtained from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite with data calculated from a two-dimensional model.

	Scott Polar Research Institute » Norw.-Brit-Swedish
		Apart from surveys and mapping the main objective was to carry out a wide ranging programme of scientific investigations with particular interest in discovering whether climatic fluctuations similar to those observed in the Arctic were also occurring in Antarctica.
		Norway was mainly responsible for meteorology and topographical surveys, Britain for geology and Sweden for glaciology.
		Meteorology: an improved understanding was developed of the importance of the Antarctic ice-sheets in regulating the world's climate.

		In the unified Swedish higher education system born with the reforms of 1969,1977 and 1986, power is decentralised to the regions and individual Hogskola (HEIs), including specific subject colleges with full university status.
		The Department of Meteorology, Stockholm University offers a variety of courses at a range of levels from a general introduction to meteorological phenomena to advanced theoretical courses.
		The programme leading to a Bachelors degree consists of formal courses in Meteorology representing 50 credit points and a ten week project that is often directly connected to the research activities at the Department.

		Born in Stockholm, Sweden, Rossby developed an interest in meteorology and oceanography while studying under Vilhelm Bjerknes at the University of Stockholm and University of Leipzig.
		His appointment as chair of the department of meteorology at the University of Chicago in 1940 began the period in which he turned his attention to large-scale atmospheric motions.
		In 1947 he became founding director of the Institute of Meteorology in Stockholm, dividing his time between there and Chicago.

		Millimetre wave measurements have been performed at IRF between 1996 and 2000 on a campaign basis by the Institute of Meteorology and Climate Research, Forschungszentrum und Universität Karlsruhe, using the 268-280 GHz radiometer MIRA 2 [Berg, 1998].
		Since January 2001, the Swedish Institute of Space Physics (Institutet för rymdfysik, IRF) operates its own ground based millimetre wave radiometer performing measurements continuously throughout the year.
		The IRF radiometer has been built in collaboration with the millimetre wave group in Karlsruhe.

	Joint Implementation Pilot Phase in Estonia
		The primary aim of the JI Steering Group is to bring together top-level decision-makers from the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Economic Affairs, the main agents in implementing the Climate Convention.
		Other institutions also deal with particular problems related to climate change, although they may not be engaged in the daily work related to climate policy or Joint Implementation.
		The relevant experience and competence of the Swedish production industry, as well as the technical and administrative competence of the recipient countries should be considered and utilized to the maximum possible extent in the planning stage.

	The first rockets launched into space from Sweden
		For a number of years the Institute of Meteorology at the University of Stockholm had been doing ground based studies of noctilucent clouds and when small inexpensive research rockets became readily available at the end of the 1950's the Institute's director, Prof Bert Bolin, advocated their use for upper atmospheric studies.
		The project, called Kronogård 62, was a major undertaking for the Institute of Meteorology, and just as the year before personnel was "borrowed" from various government agencies and recruited from technical universities and even high schools.
		The research into the physics of the upper atmosphere started in Kronogård has continued very successfully at the Institute of Meteorology and the young atmospheric scientist starting his researches in Kronogård, Georg Witt, is now retired from his position as professor of atmospheric physics at the University of Stockholm.
