Email 3178, Sept 2000, UEA's Trevor Davies: Met Office considering move to UEA's town (Norwich); "An objective of the Met Office is to "diversify into environmental services""

Email 3178

At this point, I would like to explain that - from ENV's point of view -
there will be benefits from a closer Met Office contact, not only in the
obvious met/climate/ocean area, but across a potentially much larger part
of our spectrum. An objective of the Met Office is to "diversify into
environmental services".

And your problem is?

With advancing atmospheric and oceanic science it makes sense for national weather services to serve the public by expanding into services about environmental impacts of the weather - including air quality, hydrology, coastal impacts of waves, etc.
