Enhancing prediction of tropical Atlantic climate and its impacts (PREFACE)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2013, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2017,
Tropical Atlantic climate recently experienced pronounced shifts of great socio-economic importance. The oceanic changes were largest in the eastern boundary upwelling systems. African countries bordering the Atlantic strongly depend upon their ocean - societal development, fisheries, and tourism. They were strongly affected by these climatic changes and will face important adaptation challenges a ...

Infrastructure for the European Network for Earth System modelling - Phase 2 (IS-ENES2)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 mars 2017,
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 assessment ...

Seasonal-to-decadal climate Prediction for the improvement of European Climate Services (SPECS)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2017,
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) sponsored the Global Framework on Climate Services (GFCS) where the need for actionable climate information for periods from several months up to several years for economic, industrial and political planning has been expressed. However, progress in seasonal forecasting has been slow and decadal forecasting is still incipient. At the same time, new model ...

EUropean Provision Of Regional Impact Assessment on a Seasonal-to-decadal timescale (EUPORIAS)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2017,
Recent advances in our understanding and forecasting of climate and climate change have brought us to the point where skilful and useful predictions are being made. These forecasts hold the potential for being of great value for a wide range of decision-makers who are affected by the vagaries of the climate and who would benefit from understanding and better managing climate-related risks. Howeve ...

EUropean CLimate and weather Events: Interpretation and Attribution (EUCLEIA)
Date du début: 13 nov. 2013, Date de fin: 1 janv. 2017,
Climate change is expected to impact extreme weather in Europe. There is therefore a clear need to adapt effectively to climate change, particularly in Europe, where recent heatwaves, floods and droughts have demonstrated the vulnerability of European citizens to extreme weather. However, scientifically robust information about the extent to which recent extreme weather can be linked to climate va ...

Dengue research Framework for Resisting Epidemics in Europe (DENFREE)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2016,
"WHO estimates that one of the main consequences of global warming will be an increased burden of vector-borne diseases. Among these, dengue appears to be particularly problematic, with tens of millions of cases of dengue fever estimated to occur annually, including up to 500,000 cases of the life-threatening dengue hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome. In recent years, the global burden of den ...

Integrated non-CO2 Greenhouse gas Observing System (INGOS)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
InGOS will support and integrate the observing capacity of Europe for non-CO2 greenhouse gases (NCGHG: CH4, N2O, SF6, H2 and halocarbons). The emissions of these gases are very uncertain and it is unknown how future climate change will feedback into the land use coupled emissions of CH4 and N2O. The NCGHG atmospheric abundances will increase further in the future and the emissions of these gases a ...

Modulating mechanisms of the onset of El Niño events (MEMENTO)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
El Niño-Southern Oscillation is the most prominent modulator of atmospheric variability, and the major driver of climate teleconnections worldwide. It is certainly predictable, but state-of-the-art coupled models seem to have reached a plateau at moderate predictability level. Understanding the theoretical nature and activation mechanism of the phenomenon would ultimately enlarge its predictabilit ...

Temporal instability of tree-ring/climate relationships: tree responses to climatic change and implications for paleoclimate research (TREE-RINGS & CLIMATE)
Date du début: 1 juin 2011, Date de fin: 26 oct. 2014,
"Although temporal instability of tree-ring/climate relationships is a critical issue with potentially significant implications for the global carbon cycle, forest growth patterns, and climate reconstruction, a greater level of understanding is still needed. Two temporal instabilities identified in Boreal and Iberian forests, termed the “divergence problem” and “climate stress strength”, respectiv ...

Climate Local Information in the Mediterranean region: Responding to User Needs (CLIM-RUN)
Date du début: 1 mars 2011, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2014,
"CLIM-RUN aims at developing a protocol for applying new methodologies and improved modeling and downscaling tools for the provision of adequate climate information at regional to local scale that is relevant to and usable by different sectors of society (policymakers, industry, cities, etc.). Differently from current approaches, CLIM-RUN will develop a bottom-up protocol directly involving stakeh ...

Initialization of global decadal climate forecast: a new challenge for multi-scale data assimilation (INCLIDA)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2012, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2014,
"Decadal prediction has emerged nowadays as a main concern in the climate sciencecommunity. Improving the forecast on the time scales of 10-30 years is expected tocarry tremendous value for the society, supporting plans for infrastructure upgrades,financial decisions or energy policies.Decadal predictions are in between the seasonal forecast (6-12 months) and theclimate prediction (on the scale of ...

Quantifying Weather and Climate Impacts on Health in Developing Countries (QWeCI)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2013,
One of the most dramatic and immediate impacts of climate variation is that on disease, especially the vector-borne diseases that disproportionally affect the poorest people in Africa. Although we can clearly see that, for example, an El Nino event triggers Rift Valley Fever epidemics, we remain poor at understanding why particular areas are vulnerable and how this will change in coming decades, s ...

"Impact of climate change on the transport, fate and risk management of viral pathogens in water" (VIROCLIME)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 31 mars 2013,
"The use of hydrological models to determine the effects of climate change on the variation in viral flux, and therefore in risk associated with viral disease, constitutes a novel approach to the management of water-related disease. Tools developed in previous EU Projects will be used to conduct case studies on five selected sites (in Sweden, Spain, Hungary, Greece and Brazil) vulnerable to clima ...
