Accelerated Arctic and Tibetan Plateau Warming: Processes and Combined Impact on Eurasian Climate (COMBINED): 328935
The Arctic and Tibetan Plateau have warmed 2–3 times faster than the global warming rate since the late twentieth century. COMBINED aims to better understand interactions between the rapid warming of these two poles, as well as other remote and regional feedback processes. These complex interactions are poorly understood but potentially have profound climate impacts. In addition, COMBINED will exploit the benefits of the Arctic sea ice initialisation and Tibetan Plateau land-surface initialization to improve the prediction of Eurasian climate from weeks, seasons, to a decade in advance.
Climate Futures: 309562
Climate Futures is strengthening society’s ability to navigate an increasing climate risk. We have especially developed quality and use of climate predictions extending from ten days to ten years into the futures. We are working withing four thematic areas: sustainable food production (agriculture and aquaculture), renewable energy, resilient societies and smart shipping.
Infrastructure for Norwegian Earth System modelling phase 2 (INES2): 350390
A climate model couples specialised computer models for various components of the climate system, such as atmosphere, ocean, sea ice and land surface with vegetation and ice sheets. When the climate model also includes advanced atmospheric chemistry and biogeochemical cycles (such as the carbon cycle), it is called an Earth system model. NorESM is the Norwegian Earth System Model and is an essential tool for researchers to be able to simulate the climate in the past, present and future. The model is therefore central to providing the necessary knowledge at a time when the world is facing increasing challenges from climate change, which require immediate measures to develop and apply effective mitigation and adaptation strategies. The infrastructure project INES2 will upgrade NorESM with new and updated functionality by incorporating research-driven development in a nationally coordinated manner.
Norwegian Earth System Modeling for CMIP7 (NorESM4CMIP7): 352204
The NorESM4CMIP7 project is an ambitious scientific endeavor aimed at elevating our comprehension of climate dynamics and the Earth system using the new NorESM3 climate model. Driven by the multidisciplinary efforts of the NorESM Climate Modeling Consortium (NCC), this project targets to play a decisive role in the forthcoming international Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP7).
