He later became the commander of meteorology for the Air Force‘s transport base, for 3 years.
other
In 1977 he left the IDF with the rank of captain, and later became a major during his reserve service.
other
Alpert was asked to continue his reserve service in the IDF, as an exception, until the age of 56, since he had developed the modeling scientific basis for the modern forecasting infrastructure at the Meteorological Service and the Air Force.
other
Alpert is married to Rachel, RN, and is the father of eight children.
other
During his service as a Meteorology officer in the Israel Air Force, Alpert was confronted with the severe difficulty of flood forecasting.
other
This motivated him to develop new techniques to predict and monitor rain, as well as to develop high-resolution models to improve forecasting.
other
In parallel with his military service, he began to work at the Hebrew University on light scattering from atmospheric aerosols.
other
After his release from the IDF he began his Ph.D. studies at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem , during which he built his own meteorological model, which successfully explained the typical summer afternoon storms over the Sea of Galilee (Lake Kinneret).
other
Upon finishing his Ph.D. in 1980, he was invited to a post-doctorate at Harvard University.
other
For two years Alpert worked with Richard Lindzenand studied the Indian Monsoon.
other
During his post-doctorate he developed a physical model incorporating feedback from the moist surface.
other
After two years in Boston, in 1982, he was invited by the Department of Geophysics and Planetary Sciences at Tel-Aviv University (now the Department of Earth Sciences) to become a faculty member.
other
In the year 2004 he was elected an honorary member of the world Jewish Academy for Sciences.

other
Alpert‘s research group is engaged in theoretical studies and observations of the dynamics of atmospheric processes, using hydro-dynamical models for numerically solving the development of different phenomena.
other
He was the first to investigate theoretically several synoptic systems in Israel, including Sharav low, Cyprus low, Red Sea Trough, etc.
other
Remote sensing observations include satellites, radar, and recently data collected by cellular antennas used for communication.
other
This last source was first identified in his research, published in "Science" Magazine.
other
Recently this method was applied for novel flood warning and monitoring of rain, fog, and humidity.
other
In order to investigate atmospheric phenomena Alpert devised a method allowing for the identification of the effect by different factors, including separation of synergistic effects.
other
The atmospheric models applied by Alpert are of three different types: The first is used for study of weather forecasting difficulties, and investigating phenomena such as rain, cyclone genesis, winds, etc.
other
The second type is of climate models which can be run ~100 years into the future, and with this method Alpert was the first to investigate detailed potential climate changes due to global warming in the Middle-East.
other
The third type of models focuses on aerosols in the atmosphere, with emphasis on mineral dust mainly from the Sahara and the Middle-East region, as well as sea-salt particles, and their effect on weather and climate.
other
Alpert has published over 240 articles in scientific peer-reviews journals, and an additional ~100 chapters in books.
other
In 2011 his book "Factor Separation in the Atmosphere: Applications and Future Prospects" was published by Cambridge Academic Press.
other
The book describes the factor separation method that he developed since 1993 for investigating interactions in the atmosphere.
other
The method was adopted globally by many research groups, and the book describes many and various applications.
other
In 2009 his book "Rain and Wind - meteorology in light of Judaism" (in Hebrew גשם ורוח - מטאורולוגיה בראי היהדות) was published by Rubin Mass press.
other
In this book Alpert analyses weather phenomena appearing in Jewish literature, provides modern scientific explanations, and ties the literary descriptions to common situations in the climate of Israel.
other
In 2014 his book "Diary of a Jerusalm Muchtar" (in Hebrew- יומנו של מוכתר בירושלים") was published by Bar-Ilan University publishing house.
other
The book reproduces the historic journal written by Alpert‘s uncle during the British Mandate, when he served as a ”muchtar", or head of neighborhood, in north Jerusalem.

Shiji Niangniang
other
Shiji Niangniang () is a goddess in Chinese religion and Taoism.
other
Before becoming goddess, she was a 10,000-year-old demoness.
other

other
Shiji was originally a stone, who receives the essence of the sun and the moon, that was born beyond the cosmos and has become a divine spirit by undergoing earth, water, fire and air.
other
After countless thousands of years, it became spiritual.
other
After 10,000 years of cultivation, this stubborn stone finally became a human figure.
other
Shiji was later accepted by the heavenly master Tongtian Jiaozhu as a student.
other
After attaining Taoism, it took thousands of years to practice.
