Regional Climate Monitoring and Assessment in the Belt and Road

Abstract

The Belt and Road is the abbreviation of the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road. The countries along the Belt and Road routes are generally highly sensitive and vulnerable to climate change, so it is urgent to design a service platform for climate change prediction and monitoring. In this paper, based on the various demands of climate change prediction and monitoring, we analyzed the importance of the establishment of a climate service platform and the main measures to improve the capabilities of climate service platform. According to the principle of “refinement, systematization and specialization”, a meteorological service platform was designed, which are based on space remote sensing, supplemented by airborne remote sensing, and verified by the ground observation network to verify that the real-time monitoring and prediction of sky and ground integration. The platform can provide scientific basis for the countries along the routes, and improve the infrastructure construction progress and personnel safety along the Belt and Road.

Slope Micrometeorological Analysis and Prediction Based on an ARIMA Model and Data-Fitting System

“…Talakh [ 15 ] used climate monitoring information technology, which combined satellite observation methods with climate station observations, to form an array of input data by considering their spatio-temporal characteristics, specifically the location, altitude, and type of the underlying surface. Based on remote-sensing space technology, Liu [ 16 ] combined airborne remote sensing and ground observation to conduct real-time monitoring and climate prediction to prepare for extreme weather events in China’s “Belt and Road” region. This type of climate monitoring combines weather stations with some new science and technology that can effectively monitor climate in real time, but it is expensive, technically complicated and only available to countries and large enterprises.…”
