公共气象与服务民生——以日本气象服务为鉴

Public Weather Services Serving People's Livelihoods:Japanese Weather Services as an Example

公共气象服务是基础性公共事业,在为国家战略、民生决策提供保障与支撑的同时,还要贴近民众,提供个性化、针对性强、适时的服务,树立气象事业"决策国计、服务民生"的理念。中国和日本同属东亚国家,两国在气象服务对象、气象的公益性等方面没有本质上的差别,差异在于体制不同,业务内容不完全一样。日本现代科学技术起步早、发展快,气象事业也是如此。应当借鉴日本在气象服务方面的成功经验,在我国公共气象服务方面深入开展多样化、细致化服务,为经济科学发展、民众安居乐业、社会和谐进步提供支持和保障。

Public weather services, as basic public utilities, need not only to provide guarantee and sup- port for governmental strategy and livelihood decision-makings, but also to be closely in touch with people, pro- viding personalized, targeted and timely weather services, and set up the concept of ＂decisions of the national planning are to serve people＇s livelihoods＂. Japan and China, two East Asian countries, are essentially the same in terms of meteorological service objects and public welfare. They all adopt the idea that PWS are sup- posed to improve public welfare. The differences only lie in the system and the specific content of services. Like modem science and technology in Japan with an early start and rapid development, its successful experi- ence in public weather services could be learned by us so that our public weather services can provide diversi- fied and comprehensive services for the public, promoting economic and scientific development and ensuring the construction of harmonious society.
