What does Japan Meteorological Agency mean?

Japan Meteorological Agency is a Japanese government agency, which is responsible for monitoring meteorological conditions and issuing weather forecasts and warnings. The predecessor of Meteorological Agency can be traced back to the end of 19. After nearly a hundred years of development and improvement, it has become the largest meteorological agency in Japan. Local meteorological stations and meteorological research institutes under the Meteorological Agency spread all over the country, forming a comprehensive meteorological monitoring network in Japan.

Weather forecasts and warnings issued by the Meteorological Agency are highly accurate and reliable, and are trusted by the Japanese people and overseas tourists. Under severe weather conditions such as strong typhoon, earthquake and volcanic eruption, the Meteorological Agency will issue relevant alarms to remind people to pay attention to safety. At the same time, the Meteorological Agency will regularly issue seasonal weather forecasts to assist the decision-making and planning of agriculture, fisheries and other industries.

In addition to routine weather forecasting and warning, the Meteorological Agency also devotes itself to studying various fields of meteorological science, including weather forecasting model, atmospheric environment research, climate change and so on. The Meteorological Agency often maintains cooperation and exchanges with the International Meteorological Organization and meteorological agencies of other countries, sharing research results and technologies. Through continuous development and innovation, the Meteorological Agency will continue to contribute to ensuring the safety and well-being of the Japanese people.
