‘Monsoon Mission III to be launched soon’
First launched in 2012, the Monsoon Mission has been a flagship project undertaken by the MoES to improve overall understanding of Indian monsoons.
Monsoons affect all regions in the world and collaborative efforts are the need of the hour, said the MoES secretary. India will soon lunch the third phase of Monsoon Mission, said M Ravichandran, secretary of the Ministry of Earth Sciences (MoES).
He was speaking at the official launch of the International Monsoons Project Office (IMPO) — jointly hosted by Pune-based Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM) and the World Meteorologic Organisation (WMO).
First launched in 2012, the Monsoon Mission has been a flagship project undertaken by the MoES to improve overall understanding of Indian monsoons.
“In the third phase, there will be need for development of more number of parameterisation schemes. The aim is to achieve further improvement in our understanding about the monsoons, thus helping achieve a quantum leap in the predictions,” Ravichandran said.
