IS-ENES2 – Infrastructure for the European Network of Earth System Modelling 2 Earth-System Modeling / Earth-System Modeling - Explore / Explore / Projects & Initiatives - Earth-System Modeling

IS-ENES2 is the second phase project of the distributed e-infrastructure of models, model data and metadata of the European Network for Earth System Modelling (ENES). This network gathers together the European modelling community working on understanding and predicting climate variability and change. ENES organizes and supports European contributions to international experiments used in assessments of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. This activity provides the...

CRESCENDO – Coordinated Research in Earth Systems and Climate: Experiments, kNowledge, Dissemination and Outreach Climate Services / Climate Services - Explore / Earth-System Modeling / Earth-System Modeling - Explore / Explore / Projects & Initiatives - Climate Services / Projects & Initiatives - Earth-System Modeling

Earth System Models are mathematical descriptions of the real world at the cutting edge of understanding how our planet works and the links between the main components of the oceans, vegetation, ice and desert, gases in the atmosphere, and the carbon cycle, as well as numerous other components. Earth System Models are a developed based on traditional climate models, extending these typically physical models, to...

PRIMAVERA (PRocess-based climate sIMulation: AdVances in high-resolution modelling and European climate Risk Assessments) is a Horizon2020 project funded by the European Commission. It began in November 2015 and runs until July 2020. The project is a collaboration between 19 European partners, led by the UK Met Office and Reading University. Its aim is to develop a new generation of advanced and well-evaluated high-resolution global climate...

GREENICE – Impacts of Sea-Ice and Snow-Cover Changes on Climate, Green Growth, and Society Earth-System Modeling / Earth-System Modeling - Explore / Explore / Projects & Initiatives - Earth-System Modeling

Combining analysis of observed climate data with global and regional climate models GREENICE focuses on the atmosphere’s response to changes in ocean heat, sea ice and snow cover. It will enhance the ability to predict both anthropogenic and naturally-driven change on 10-30 year timescales. GREENICE will undertake case studies in selected northern communities to increase understanding of the present and historical adaptation of these communities...

ARCPATH – Arctic Climate Predictions: Pathways to Resilient, Sustainable Societies Earth-System Modeling / Earth-System Modeling - Explore / Explore / Projects & Initiatives - Earth-System Modeling

The Arctic is of fundamental importance in the climate system because of the important atmospheric and oceanic feedbacks that occur here. Added to this, global warming has caused intense changes in Arctic climate, with a rise in temperatures during recent years that is close to twice that of other regions. These rapid changes are a challenge to communities already at risk from many other aspects...

CORDEX – Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment Earth-System Modeling / Earth-System Modeling - Explore / Explore / Projects & Initiatives - Earth-System Modeling

Global climate models (ESMs or GCMs) can provide  climate information on scales of around 1000 by 1000 km (with grid resolution of 100’s of km) covering what could be a vastly differing landscape (from very mountainous to flat coastal plains for example) with greatly varying potential for floods, droughts or other extreme events. Regional Climate Models (RCM) and Empirical Statistical Downscaling (ESD), applied over a...

ECRA – European Climate Research Alliance Earth-System Modeling / Earth-System Modeling - Explore / Explore / Projects & Initiatives - Earth-System Modeling

ECRA aims to strengthen, expand and optimise EU climate research capabilities through the sharing of world-class national facilities in Europe and the collaborative realisation of pan-EU programmes. National and European Climate change research programmes have to be streamlined and coordinated, in order to ensure optimum use of human resources, modelling capacities, field activities, and infrastructures, maximising therefore the impact of scientific results and reinforcing the...
