Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is a follow-up to the first Special Issue entitled “Advances in Transportation Meteorology” (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/atmosphere/special_issues/Transportation_Meteorology) published in Atmosphere in 2023.
Transportation is one of the most crucial aspects across the world, supporting the daily life of human beings and the sustainable development of the whole society. Generally, meteorology causes various impacts on the transportation operation, safety and efficiency. In the context of global warming, increasing numbers of extreme weather and climate events (such as fog, icy roads, and extreme winds) have been detected worldwide and are expected to occur more frequently in the future. Meanwhile, extreme events such as dense fog, rainstorm and blizzard tend to damage the transportation and the traffic facilities (such as express ways, port, airport, and high speed railway) and induce serious traffic blocks and accidents.
In recent decades, concentrated and continuous efforts have been made to carry out meteorological analyses regardless of the urban traffic or transportation conditions, including those of highways, shipping, aviation, etc. A number of methods and techniques have been intensively developed to promote the qualities of both observations and forecasts. More recently, state-of-the-art machine learning frameworks have also been widely introduced into studies regarding transportation meteorology and many other fields.
The current Special Issue seeks original reviews and papers encompassing all aspects related to the abovementioned topics, from observations, forecast method, formation mechanism to influence analysis of transportation meteorology and linked extreme events, aiming to explore the well-established but rapidly growing field of transportation meteorology and to prevent and reduce the associated hazards more sufficiently.
