ENHANCE – Disaster Risk Reduction

As natural catastrophes, such as floods, heatwaves or wildfires, are expected to become more frequent and intense in the future, mitigating their impacts through working partnerships and the dissemination of risk information is vital. This is the message highlighted by an EU-funded research project ENHANCE in a newly published book ‘Novel Multi-Sector Partnerships in Disaster Risk Management – Results of the ENHANCE project’. The book...

Food Insecurity interactive tool

Experts from the World Food Programme have worked in collaboration with Met Office climate scientists to devise a measurement of food vulnerability to climate change. The Food Insecurity and Climate Change index is a measure of how vulnerable to disruption a country’s food security system is as a result of flood and drought events. The results of this research have been incorporated into an interactive...

The Climate Change Initiative project

The objective of the CCI programme is to realize the full potential of the long-term global Earth Observations archives that ESA together with its Member States have established over the last 30 years, as a significant and timely contribution to the ECV databases required by the UNFCCC. The CCI comprises fourteen parallel projects geared to ECV data production, plus a dedicated climate modelling user project...

NACLIM: North Atlantic Climate

The North Atlantic Ocean is one of the most important drivers for the global ocean circulation and its variability on time scales beyond inter-annual. Global climate variability is to a large extent triggered by changes in the North Atlantic sea surface state. The quality and skill of climate predictions depends crucially on a good knowledge of the northern sea surface temperatures (SST) and sea ice distributions. On...

ECOMS User Data Gateway

Aim of the User Data Gateway (UDG) is to facilitate seasonal forecasting data access to end users. A wiki page provides an up-to-date description of the ECOMS-UDG, including information on the available datasets and variables, and the documentation of the available tools. The User Data Gateway is build as part of the project European Climate Observations, Modelling and Services initiative (ECOMS). ECOMS was promoted by...

ENES – European Network for Earth System modelling

ENES was launched in 2001. Upon the establishment of the network and in the following years, several institutions including university departments, research centres, meteorological services, computer centres, and industrial partners, agreed to work together and cooperate (see Memorandum of Understanding) to discuss strategies to accelerate progress in climate and Earth system modelling and understanding. It is intended to be a portal for the climate modelling...

CMIP6 – WCRP Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6

The objective of the CMIP is to better understand past, present and future climate changes arising from natural, unforced variability or in response to changes in radiative forcing in a multi-model context. This understanding includes assessments of model performance during the historical period and quantifications of the causes of the spread in future projections. Idealized experiments are also used to increase understanding of the model...

CLIPC – Climate Information Platform for Copernicus

CLIPC provides access to climate information of direct relevance to a wide variety of users, from scientists to policy makers and private sector decision makers. Information will include data from satellite and in-situ observations, climate models and re-analyses, transformed data products to enable impacts assessments and climate change impact indicators. The platform will complement existing GMES/Copernicus pre-operational components, but will focus on datasets which provide...
