Climate Predictability and Inter-Regional Linkages (Climate 2015)

This Collaborative Research Action (CRA) aimed to contribute to the overall challenge of developing climate services, with a focus on the role of inter-regional linkages in climate variability and predictability by addressing the following:
- Understanding past and current variability and trends of regional extremes.
- Predictability of near-future variability and trends of regional extremes.
- Co-construction of near-term forecast products with users.
BMWFW, FAPESP, NSFC, ANR, BMBF, MoES, JST/MEXT, RCN, QNRF, FORMAS, NWO, and NERC
