Description

"A number of observatories in Chile operate in the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Therefore, it is very important to them to accurately know the water vapor content of the atmosphere for a better observational planning. This talk provides an overview of the methods used to forecast water vapor over astronomical sites in Chile using observations and atmospheric numerical modeling."
