Time: Wednesday 20 May 16.00-17.30
Room: Stora hallen A
Session chairs: Gabriele Messori, Uppsala University, CLIMES; Hans Chen, Chalmers, MERGE; Fuxing Wang, SMHI
We invite contributions on climate variability and extremes in the mid- and high latitudes, with a focus on dynamical understanding and predictability on meteorological to seasonal timescales. We welcome work addressing these topics in past, current and future climates. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: large-scale atmospheric dynamics as drivers of climate variability and extremes; data-driven approaches for extreme event forecasting; compound climate extremes; trends in atmospheric dynamics.
