RG1 – Climate variability processes and extremes
The Climate variability processes and extremes group focuses on understanding the impacts of climate variability, climate extremes and climate change in the coupled Earth system ocean-land-atmosphere and devising adaptation strategies. This encompasses evaluating the influence of historic and future climate conditions on different sectoral areas (agriculture, forests, renewable energies, and health) and ecosystems (vegetation, marine, air pollution), proposing mitigation and adaptation strategies. The group is a key contributor to regional and global climate modelling studies and Earth-system model development, participating in the main international initiatives. RG1 also includes expertise in applied research, mainly concerning climate and remote sensing services, ocean margin processes and renewable energy.
