Workshop on Understanding and Predicting Annual to Multi-Decadal Climate Variations
Location: Bologna, Italy (hybrid)
Deadline for abstract submission: 15 July 2025
This workshop focuses on climate variations on annual to multi-decadal timescales (1–30 years) and invites contributions on a wide range of topics, including: skill assessments of predictions; studies on the role of external forcings and climate variability; investigations on the mechanisms underlying specific aspects of predictability; prediction and predictability of climate extremes; evaluations of novel post-processing methods and new modelling techniques; studies on integrated attribution and prediction of climate and extremes. Around these themes, we also welcome studies employing explainable artificial intelligence and machine learning approaches.
The workshop is jointly organized by three Horizon Europe projects (ASPECT, EXPECT, I4C) together with the WCRP’s DCPP and EPESC groups working on integrated attribution, prediction and projection. Given a degree of overlap between the aims and the scope of the individual entities involved, this workshop also aims at providing new opportunities for closer collaboration.
Abstract submission is open until 15 July 2025.
