Town/ City Seasonal Climate Forecasts, Re-Climate® API

The Re-Climate® API delivers the most reliable seasonal climate prediction system in Europe, with its extended precipitation forecasts independently assessed by the National Physical Laboratory. Uniquely, WeatherLogistics® delivers long-range forecasts of 2 to 15 weeks (14 to 90 days) suitable for operations planning. WeatherLogistics® research and development focusses on reducing model bias and uncertainties at a local scale. It achieves this by blending numerous climate datasets and weather models (ECMWF, Met Office, Météo-France and a jet stream linked statistical model) through its algorithms. This helps organisations to accurately forecast extreme weather, within well-calibrated confidence intervals, calculate their risk exposure and adapt to extreme weather and chronic climate hazards. Re-Climate®'s unique provision of confidence bounds, and Python Quickstart code allows users to reduce their Data Science workload and calculate accurate likelihoods of occurrence for weather events. Downscaling is both temporal and spatial and based on local variability training (altitude, coastlines, surface land cover, geology, rain shadows, frost basins and other geographical features), with daily precipitation events spatially correlated and consistent with ERA-5 observations. Evidence for its validity is supported through impartial assessment work undertaken by the UK's national measurements standards agency (NPL Management Limited). Modelling weather events and seasonal climate helps decision-makers communicate losses linked to floods, drought, wind damage, hail, heatwaves or freeze days to within 3.5 kilometres. Forecasts of climate perils covering the next full 3 months. Supplied as a 100-member 'ensemble', a collection of well-calibrated daily weather time series, Re-Climate® enables firms to better hedge or price their risk. The product also helps clients adapt to acute physical risks posed by extreme weather events such as heatwaves and floods, develop rigorous scenario plans, and protect assets from climate hazards on operational timescales. WeatherLogistics has a mission to help meet UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for food, water, and natural resources. Currently the firm is developing a sustainability monitoring platform to advise farmers on their present and future climate exposure and how to reduce both their agricultural inputs and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This forms part of a 12-month project in partnership with the University of Leicester, the University of Reading and supported and funded by UKRI/ STFC. Future farmers will be able to build smarter precision farming solutions and benchmarking platforms, integrated pest management systems, and decision-support applications to avoid food supply distribution. Growers can also optimise their operations with better timed preventative spraying, frost protection, and crop quality assurance.
