Less than a month to ICRC-CORDEX 2023

28 August 2023

In less than a month the CORDEX International Conference On Regional Climate 2023 starts in Trieste and Pune!

– Regional climate researchers, decision makers and other users of regional climate information will gather for the 5th CORDEX International Conference on Regional Climate. This is an opportunity to discuss and communicate knowledge about high resolution regional climate calculations for different areas in the world, tools for these calculations, effects and applications. We want to create a meeting platform for experts and users to bridge the gap between science and society and where we can discuss how the information best can be used for informed decision and building resilience, says Iréne Lake, director for the International Project Office for CORDEX at SMHI.

The conference takes place between the 25-29 September. It is no longer possible to register, but it will be possible to follow a live stream on our Youtube channel. More information will be added to the conference website.
