The National Centre for Hydrology and Meteorology (NCHM) plans to develop a new campus on a “green field” site to act as the headquarters and principal operations centre with technical and financial assistance from the World Bank. The NCHM is mandated to observe and understand the behaviour of the atmosphere over Bhutan, its interaction with the cryosphere and water bodies, the weather and climate of the country, and the distribution of the country’s water resources. The Centre is identified as the nodal agency responsible for generation of information and delivery of products and services on weather, climate, cryosphere, and water resources in Bhutan. It was formed as an autonomous scientific and technical agency in 2016, having previously been a part of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. The establishment of the NCHM has brought together into a single organisation the study of all aspects of meteorology, climatology, hydrology, and cryosphere (glaciology and related science) in Bhutan, as well as aviation meteorology. In December 2019, the National Disaster Management Authority chaired by the Prime Minister designated the NCHM as the National Hydromet Hazard Early Warning Service Provider, pursuant to the Disaster Management Act 2013 to ensure clear and systematic early warning and notification to vulnerable populations and government agencies of threatening hydrometeorological hazards, disaster situations or events in the country. NCHM does not have access to spaces designed for 24/7 operational work. In order that its capacities may be fully used to the benefit of the citizens of Bhutan and serve as a regional Centre of Excellence on mountain meteorology, it needs to have facilities for education and outreach so that users can learn how best to take advantage of advanced forecast and warning information.
