UK Climate Projections in Practice Events

Published: Fri, 14 Aug 2009 14:15:52

Following the recent launch of the UK Climate Projections 09 (UKCP09), the South West region is now hosting the first of a series of regional training events across the UK.

The South West Climate Change Impacts Partnership (SWCCIP), in partnership with Defra, UK Climate Impacts Programme and Government Office for the South West are hosting a week-long series of half-day events, Monday 14th - Friday 18th September, in Taunton for organisations in the South West to learn more about UKCP09 and the need to adapt to our changing climate.

The events, delivered by UKCIP, will examine what UKCP09 tells us about how the climate will change in our region, emphasising the need to adapt to the changes we are already locked into.

The week consists of 9 half-day workshops, which will give delegates a more in-depth understanding of the practical application of UKCP09. In addition to a number of open workshops, specific workshops are being offered for local authorities, planners, flood and coastal risk management practitioners, and those working in nature conservation.

There are also 9 User Interface sessions that will provide detailed training on how to manipulate the data behind the projections.
