Military meteorology is meteorology applied to military purposes, by armed forces or other agencies. It is one of the most common fields of employment for meteorologists. World War II brought great advances in meteorology as large-scale military land, sea, and air campaigns were highly dependent on weather, particularly forecasts provided by the Royal Navy, Met Office and USAAF for the Normandy landing and strategic bombing. Military meteorologists currently operate with a wide variety of military units, from aircraft carriers to special forces.

dbo:abstract
  • La météorologie militaire est l'application des données et théories météorologiques à l'usage des forces armées d'un pays. Comme la météorologie conditionne ou influence les opérations militaires tant terrestres que maritimes et aériennes, tous les pays ont créé des services météorologiques à l'intérieur de ces différentes forces ou des unités combinées. Les météorologues qui y travaillent sont généralement des militaires, comme aux États-Unis et en France, mais certains autres pays utilisent des météorologues de leur services civils comme au Canada.

World War II brought great advances in meteorology as large-scale military land, sea, and air campaigns were highly dependent on weather, particularly forecasts provided by the Royal Navy, Met Office and USAAF for the Normandy landing and strategic bombing. University meteorology departments grew rapidly as the military services sent cadets to be trained as weather officers. Wartime technological developments such as radar also proved to be valuable meteorological observing systems. More recently, the use of satellites in space has contributed extensively to military meteorology. Military meteorologists currently operate with a wide variety of military units, from aircraft carriers to special forces. (en)
