October 2017 - Met Office scientists attend the “Twenty Years of meteo.pl” conference at the Interdisciplinary Centre for Mathematical and Computational Modelling (ICM) at the University of Warsaw, which uses the Unified Model.

The Unified Model (UM) [1] has been in operations at the Met Office since June 1991. It has also been used since 1997 for numerical weather prediction (NWP) at ICM, which is at the University of Warsaw. ICM runs the UM as a regional model centred over Poland, driven by initial and boundary
