The Fifth Annual CliMathNet Conference was held at the Henley Business School, Whiteknights Campus at the University of Reading, from 29th August to 1st September 2017.
cientific themes
The conference addressed emerging mathematical, computational and statistical techniques for understanding weather and climate. Areas of interest include:
| – Stochastic and deterministic modelling
– Data/model fusion and assimilations – Prediction and Predictability – Climate variability and climate change – Understanding future from past climatic conditions – Extreme events and critical transitions |
– Model reduction techniques and parameterisation
– Downscaling and post-processing – Geophysical turbulence – Statistical Mechanics of Climate – Numerical Models – High performance Computing |
The conference featured a special session dedicated to showcasing relevant research outputs of some UK-based graduate schools. This event was a collaboration of CliMathNet, of the Centre for the Mathematics of Planet Earth of the University of Reading, and of the Mathematics of Planet Earth Centre for Doctoral Training.
