The compilation, which took five years, was done by local meteorologists and Tibetan language experts in Tibet on the basis of a Mandarin version of the lexicon.
The publication of over 2,000 entries covers areas like atmosphere, synoptic meteorology and climatology, head of the compilation committee Soinam Doje said.
"About 30 per cent of the Tibetan translations are newly created words," compiler Namgyae Zhoigar told state-run Xinhua adding that local meteorological departments will help farmers and herdsmen understand and use the terminology.
Tibet, with an average altitude of over 4,000 meters and a unique topography, features complicated and varied climatic environment and is susceptible to meteorological anomalies.
