The Forecast is Promising

Case Study: ManUniCast is a publicly accessible weather and air quality forecasting tool accessed through modern web browsers. It aims to support the teaching in the School of Earth, Atmospheric and Environmental Sciences, while also educating the public about how weather and air-quality forecasts are made.

Celina Jones from the School of Materials contacted the FSE eLearning team to propose the creation of an online catalogue of weave structures.
