SUMMARY:16th International Swiss Climate Summer School 2017 “High-resolution climate: observations, models and projections"
LOCATION:Ascona\, Switzerland
DESCRIPTION:The Swiss Climate Research, the network of leading Swiss institutions in cl
 imate research and education, invites young scientists to join high-profile
  climate researchers on the occasion of the 16th International Swiss Climat
 e Summer School 2017.\nWith the advent of satellites and high-performance c
 omputing, the resolution of climate information is dramatically increasing.
  This development is of critical importance from scientific and societal po
 ints of view. It will improve the representation of key processes, weather 
 systems and extreme events; reduce uncertainties in climate projections; an
 d facilitate the use of climate information for mitigation and adaptation m
 easures.\nTopics covered will include:\n\n - What observational methodologi
 es provide high-resolution data?\n - How suitable are current global and re
 gional climate models for high-resolution application?\n - What is the role
  of high resolution in representing extreme events such as heat waves, drou
 ghts, windstorms and floods?\n - How can we exploit the highly parallel and
  heterogeneous hardware architectures of emerging generations of high-perfo
 rmance supercomputers?\n - How can high-resolution information be used to i
 nform decision processes in the context of a changing climate?The courses c
 over a broad spectrum of cutting-edge climate research and foster cross-dis
 ciplinary links. Each topic includes keynote plenary lectures and workshops
  with in-depth discussion in smaller groups. All Summer School participants
  are expected to present a poster of their research. There will be ample op
 portunity for discussion. The Summer School is open to young researchers (P
 hD students and Post-Docs) worldwide from all fields of climate research. P
 articipation is highly competitive and will be limited to a maximum of 70.\
 nFurther information about the Summer School and the application procedure 
 can be found in the attached flyer or visit the website www.climateresearch
