Investigation of the Earth's atmosphere and its interaction with surface and cosmic forcing
Precipitation with significant hydrological response and QPF including nowcasting. Effect of deposited precipitation on the loading by chemical pollutants. Effect of clouds and precipitation on microwave propagation. Meteorological aspects of wind energetics and atmospheric boundary layer. Variability of climate with emphasis to extreme events and development of methods of constructing scenarios of climate change, particularly for impact studies. Long–term trends in ozone and the upper atmosphere. Ionosphere under solar and meteorologial forcing. Processes in the Earth's topside ionosphere and magnetosphere in relation to solar wind; utilization of our satellite measurements. Simulations of wave processes in the Earth's plasma environment. Advanced mathematical and software tools for analysis and interpretation of wave measurements from missions of ESA. Monitoring of atmospheric and ionospheric parameters, evaluation of satellite data. Transfer of data into world network.
PUBLIC COLLECTION OF IMG AS CR, V. V. I. On August 6th, 2014, the Institute of Molecular Genetics of the AS CR, v. v. i., (IMG) opened a public collection aimed to help 14-year-old Katareeya Epp, who unfortunately died October 6th.
Her parents are employed in the IMG (project BIOCEV). Because Katareeya originates from a “third country”, namely, Australia, according to the Czech legislation she is not entitled to healthcare support from the public healthcare insurance.
The cost of intensive therapy during first two months have already exceeded the limits of private insurance in the amount of 1,6 million CZK. All the cost now repose only on the girl’s parents.
