08:30 – 09:00 | Safe Landing Climates | Gabi Hegerl and Hyungyun Kim | The safe landing climate is SLC (Safe Landing Climates) lighthouse is focusing on multidecadal to millennial timescales, organised in 5 themes & Working Groups: Safe landing pathways (CC scenarios); Understanding HRES events (regimes shift, compound events); Perturbed Carbon cycle (CO2); Water resources (eg. deforestation); Sea Level Rise . A GEWEX Newsletter article describes the focus. |
09:00 – 09:30 | Digital Earth | Christian Jakob and Andreas Prein | Digital Earth lighthouse focus on Global & Regional information on past, present, future. DE will link existing large scale programmes (& investments). Three main themes & WGs in DE:
Comment: DE could/should push to endorse, re-groupe & link all storm resolving projects (in EU Nextgems (& Dyamond), Destine Programme, in US, AU). Comment: A way to overcome initial aversion to DE could be to show added value of new generation of DE models will do (precipitation & hydrological extremes, clouds, wind) to show how they fit the needs. Comment: Links to ESMO are going to be important to benefit from overlaps. |
09:30 – 10:00 | Explaining and Predicting | Kirsten Findell | Explaining & Predicting lighthouse is focusing on the science that enable the design and deployment of integrated capability for quantitative evaluation (observations, early warning, prediction of Earth System changes) at multi-annual to decadal timescales. Three themes & WGs:
|
11:30 – 12:00 | Regional Information for Society (RiFFS) | Peter van Oevelen | RIFS lighthouse is organised in 4 clusters (understanding regional, ...). RIFS will link with the RHP & GLASS panels, and link to Lighthouses. RIFS interfaces with CORDEX, and help focus climate change scenarios of farm-scales. RIFS is completing the chain from GHP/RHP down to users, with elements of social science, socio-economic, communication, impact. |
10:30 – 11:00 | My Climate Risk | Ali Nazemi and Paola Arias | MCR (My Climate Risk) lighthouse is getting into a more mature state. Science plan consolidated. A bottom-up approach to local assessment of climate risk is embraced with people focus (see Rodriguez & Sheperd 2022). Risk impact is at the interception of hazards, vulnerability and exposure. MCR will adopt the narrative of case studies. Questions: How the MCR link to existing assessment? (The US National Climate Assessment, mandated by congress, the European State of Climate) and with climate services? |
12:00 – 12:30 | Earth System Modelling and Observations (ESMO) | Remy Roca and Tristan L’Ecuyer | ESMO (Earth System Modelling and Observations, Lead: Susann Tegtmeier & Cath Senior) is a Core Project of WCRP (alike GEWEX) that aims at addressing the overall coordination mechanism across models, data, observations, assimilation. ESMO will encompass and provide an umbrella to several existing panels (WGNE, WGCM, WGSIP, Obs4MIP, S2S, TIRA, and a new ObsPanel?). ESMO is the natural home to data assimilation & climate reanalysis discussions but it will also include a strong component on the Carbon Cycle current/predicted changes (linking with IG3IS/GAW, IGBP & WGCM carbon communities). ESMO will interact with external partners in WWRP, GAW, GCOS, GOOS, CEOS/CGMS & Space Agencies, Future Earth Projects (AIMES, SOLAS). GEWEX has a clear role in observation stewardship (showcasing usefulness and applications). |
13:30 – 14:00 | WCRP Academy | Mike Bosilovich | Academy lighthouse is a marketplace for trainers and trainees of climate information. Aiming at training the future generation of climate scientists. Three thematic areas & WGs:
|
11:00 – 11:30 | SSG-34B Planing | Xubin Zeng and Jan Polcher | |
14:00 – 14:30 | WCRP Secretariat Update | Hindumathi Palanisamy and Mike Sparrow | |
14:30 – 15:00 | Pan-GASS update | Daniel Klocke | |
15:00 – 15:30 | WCRP Academy | Mike Bosilovich, Qingyun Dian | |
15:30 – 16:00 | Break | ||
16:00 – 17:00 | PAN-GEWEX Planning I | Xubin Zeng and Jan Polcher | |
17:00 – 17:30 | Wrap-up | Peter van Oevelen |
