IBM is exploring a sale of its weather operation, according to people familiar with the matter, as the technology company seeks to streamline its operations. An auction of the business is at an early stage, the people said, and there may not be a deal. Should there be one, private-equity is most likely the buyer in a deal that could be valued at more than $1 billion, the people said.

From mountain peaks to ocean depths, climate change continued its advance in 2022, according to the annual report from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). Droughts, floods and heatwaves affected communities on every continent and cost many billions of dollars. Antarctic sea ice fell to its lowest extent on record and the melting of some European glaciers was, literally, off the charts.

The State Hydrometeorological Service (SHS) of the Republic of Moldova is undergoing a comprehensive institutional reform and modernization process. Currently, the SHS operates based on an outdated 1998 law that hinders the provision of updated climate and environmental services.
These would operate from the ground and not as part of the instruments that the IMD mounts on balloons that go up 20-25 km where data is collected. THE INDIA Meteorological Department (IMD) is all set to get more ears on the ground to track the weather up above.
In many places around the world, data clearly shows a rise in sea level. In low-lying coastal areas, even small increases when coupled with high tides and storm surges can have devastating consequences. Hydrography can provide a range of technological and data solutions for monitoring changes, pinpointing vulnerable areas and preparing for the future.
One of MIT’s five Climate Grand Challenges flagship projects, the Jameel Observatory-CREWSnet project will pilot in Bangladesh and Sudan to help communities adapt to the impacts of climate change.
