The workshop will address the status and prospects for advancing climate prediction, monitoring, and diagnostics, with emphasis on five major themes:
- Improving climate prediction tools and techniques through dynamical and statistical models and methods, forecaster practices and protocols, data and model improvements, and scientific concepts.
- Prospects for improved understanding, prediction, and simulation of intra-seasonal, seasonal, inter-annual climate variability, including the extratropical annual modes, stratosphere/troposhere coupling, tropical-extratropical interactions, land-surface forcing, etc.
- Climate variability and prediction in relation to the hydrologic cycle and in particular Western water resources.
- Prediction and attribution of recent high impact weather and climate events.
- Improving climate services through the application of new technologies, including GIS, statistical tools, and software development practices.
The workshop will feature daytime presentations, invited speakers, and panel discussions with a poster session event on one evening.
