3rd European Climate Change Adaptation Conference “Our Climate Ready Future”

The theme of ECCA 2017 is ‘Our Climate Ready Future’. Our vision is that this conference will inspire and enable people to work together to discover and deliver positive climate adaptation solutions that can strengthen society, revitalise local economies and enhance the environment. We will bring together the people who will deliver action on the ground – from business, industry, NGOs, local government and communities – to share knowledge, ideas and experience with researchers and policymakers. Set in the cultural city of Glasgow, at the heart of a city-region that is putting climate adaptation and climate justice at the core of decision-making, ECCA 2017 offers a unique opportunity to visit many innovative local adaptation projects and share experience of how climate adaptation can work in practice.
ECCA 2017 is held in Europe but the focus will be global. Participants from over 60 countries on five continents have already registered their interest or submitted abstracts, and we expect the presentations and sessions to be fully international in scope.

The homogeneous data series with high quality and the spatial interpolation are indispensable for the climatological and meteorological examinations. The primary goal of this meeting is to promote the discussion about the methodological and theoretical aspects.

The Copernicus Climate Change Service is holding its inaugural General Assembly over five days, 6 – 10 March 2017 in Toulouse, France, for providers, users and potential users alike.

6 and 10 March will offer the possibility for participants to network and organise side meetings, and 7-9 March will be dedicated to the plenary assembly.

The General Assembly will:

provide updates on the latest developments to the service;
gather and share user requirements and feedback on the service so far and its various proof-of-concept activities;
share the knowledge and experience of the current C3S providers across the various components of the Service;
facilitate networking and brainstorming sessions for the climate change community in the context of an operational C3S.
