The quest for climate scientists to be able to bridge the gap between shorter-term seasonal forecasts and long-term climate projections is ‘coming of age’, a study shows.
The quest for climate scientists to be able to bridge the gap between shorter-term seasonal forecasts and long-term climate projections is ‘coming of age’, a study shows.
A new review paper by a team of international climate experts, including Professor Adam Scaife from the University of Exeter, has shown the true capabilities of near-term climate predictions, out to just a few years ahead
These improved predictions are increasingly valuable for policymakers, governments and international aid agencies to provide increased resilience to flood and drought management, as well as international disaster risk reduction.
The study is published in leading research journal Nature Climate Change on Monday, January 21 2019.
