Linking science and society (Climateurope)

Description:

Climateurope is:

• The Europe-wide network for researchers, suppliers and users of climate information;
• A place to share best practices, gaps and recommendations and discover the state of the art about climate observations, modelling and services;
• An opportunity to actively interact with users and suppliers of climate information.

 

The overall concept behind Climateurope is to create and manage a framework to coordinate, integrate and support Europe’s research and innovation activities in the fields of Earth-System modeling and climate services. The purpose of this concept is to create greater social and economic value for Europe through improved preparation for, and management of, climate-related risks and opportunities arising from making European world-class knowledge more useable and thus more applicable to policy- and decision-making.
