The research staff includes some 100 scientists at the Research Unit, where the Rossby Centre is part of. The research division is divided into six units:〔(Research on SMHI website )〕 * Meteorological prediction and analysis * Air quality * Oceanography * Hydrology * Rossby Centre (Regional and Global Climate Modelling) * Atmospheric Remote Sensing The regional and global climate modelling is at the Rossby Centre, which was established at SMHI in 1997.〔(About the Rossby Centre at SMHI website )〕 Environmental research spans all six research units. There is also a project for providing contributions to the HIRLAM (High Resolution Limited Area Model) project.
