Active Projects

TEMPEST

People: Andrew Dawson, Tim Palmer
We are part of the TEMPEST Project. Our involvement in TEMPEST covers "Investigating the response of intense extratropical cyclones to climate change in very high-resolution global atmospheric model experiments capable of capturing mesoscale structures."

Stochastic Parametrisation and Model Uncertainty

People: Hannah Arnold, Tim Palmer, Irene Moroz
Project details.

Handling model-related uncertainty in weather and climate forecasts

People: Antje Weisheimer, Tim Palmer, Myles Allen
This project is part of the National Centre for Atmospheric Science (NCAS) Climate & Weather Programmes.

Towards the Prototype Probabilistic Earth-System Model for Climate Prediction

People: Tim Palmer
This project is funded by an ERC Advanced Investigator Grant 2011.

SPECS

People: Antje Weisheimer, Tim Palmer
We are part of the FP7 project SPECS (Seasonal-to-decadal climate Prediction for the improvement of European Climate Services) and lead the workpackage 4.4. on Addressing Model Inadequacy. SPECS intends to develop the new generation of European operational seasonal-to-decadal climate forecast systems for the production of reliable, local climate information at the global scale. SPECS is a collaborative project with 20 partners from Europe and Brazil and is part of a cluster of European projects that will provide a coordinated response to the societal need for climate services.
