G.I. Marchuk Institute of Numerical Mathematics of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Research Computing Center of the Lomonosov Moscow State University, Institute for Monitoring of Climatic and Environmental Systems of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow Center of Fundamental and Applied Mathematics, Obukhov Institute of Atmospheric Physics of the Russian Academy of Sciences and Department of Earth Sciences of the Russian Academy of Sciences organize the All-Russian Conference and School of Young Scientists with international participation on Computational and Information Technologies for Environmental Sciences (CITES-2025, June 16 - 26 2025, Moscow, Russia).

The school will be held on June 16 - 20 and the conference will be held on June 23 - 26. The School and Conference are held within the framework of the celebration of the 100th anniversary of G.I. Marchuk and 80th anniversary of V.N. Lykosov, who made an outstanding contribution to the formation and development of mathematical modeling of the Earth system in Russia and the world.

Above normal precipitation is expected in the east of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan from March 7 to March 13, 2025. In the south and south-east of the European territory of Russia, a shortage of precipitation is forecasted, where there is currently insufficient soil moisture.

Complex probabilistic forecast of precipitation (SL-AV and MGO models)

Abnormally cold weather is expected in the east of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, west and south of Yakutia from February 28 to March 6, 2025. Deviations of the average temperature from the climatic norm will be 6° C and more.

Positive surface temperature anomalies in the Ural Federal District, in the central regions of Kazakhstan and in the east of Uzbekistan exceed 10 degrees relative to the climatic norm. The Siberian depression of the circumpolar cyclone at the AT-500 level in the first decade of January was strongly deformed by the high geopotential over the east of Kazakhstan and Mongolia. According to forecasts based on the SL-AV and MGO model, in the next week the deformation of the depression will persist, positive geopotential anomalies will be observed over Central Asia and southern Siberia:

Such circulation processes are confirmed by forecasts of the indicies according to the SL-AV model: positive phase of the EU oscillation for January 2025, which indicates positive surface temperature anomalies in most of Northern Asia.
