The special "Environmental Meteorology: From the Fundamentals of Climate to Operational Applications" lecture series is a new joint initiative between the Earth System Physics group at ICTP and the Atmospherics Physics group at the University of Trento. They present the current state of research and operational implementation of all areas of weather and climate, past, present and future, and span basic theory, idealized and realistic modelling, through to applications of climate and weather in sectors that include the health, agriculture, energy and the economy.

Europe/Rome An ICTP-IUGG Virtual meeting The Workshop will discuss state-of-the-art, applications and perspectives of data assimilation and inverse problems in geophysical sciences. World leading scientists will be attracted to the program to present and discuss these topics in relation to specific geophysical disciplines. Understanding the complex operation of the Earth system requires an interdisciplinary approach and international collaboration. Data assimilation and modern methods of solving inverse problems provide unique opportunities to exploit such approach and collaboration by integrating data and information from disciplinary sources. These techniques become major forecasting tools in meteorology, oceanography, atmospheric chemistry, hydrology, and recently they started to be applied to solid Earth problems. The workshop organized jointly by the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG), ICTP, and EAIFR will discuss applications of data assimilation and inverse problem methodologies to specific geophysical fields. The related scientific progress may contribute to the solutions of major societal challenges, such as climatic and environmental changes, disaster risk reduction, and sustainability. PhD students, postdocs, and advanced practitioners are encouraged to attend the workshop. Topics: Inverse problems Data assimilation Atmospheric sciences and meteorology Oceanography Climatology Hydrology and cryospheric sciences Geodynamics and seismology Volcanology Geodesy Geomagnetism and aeronomy Lecturers: F.

Europe/Rome An ICTP Virtual Meeting This is the 10th workshop of the series on regional climate modeling and the ICTP RegCM modeling system. The focus of the workshop will be on the testing and release of the 5th generation version of the model RegCM5, which includes a new non-hydrostatic dynamical core. The workshop will include theoretical and tutorial lectures on regional climate modeling in general, the history and performance of the RegCM system, its application to different CORDEX activities (CORDEX-CORE, CORDEX FPS) and the structure of the new version RegCM5. The participants will be requested to learn how to run the new model and carry out short experiments over different domains, possibly testing different model components, both at convection-permitting resolutions of a few km and coarser resolutions of a few tens of km. Topics: Regional climate modeling Added value of RCMs The Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX) History of the regional modeling system RegCM Analyses of the recently completed CORDEX-CORE ensemble simulations Simulations at convection permitting scales The new dynamical core of RegCM5 Speakers: S.

**DEADLINE: 01/10/2021**

Europe/Rome An ICTP-IAEA Virtual Meeting The College will provide analytical training and information on the assessment of energy system and energy technologies when developing Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) under the global climate treaty of Paris Agreement. Transition to low carbon economies depends heavily on actions within energy system, as the major source of anthropogenic greenhouse gases (GHG). There is a need to identify and evaluate cost-effective, low-carbon energy demand and supply paths of future. The expertise to conduct such assessments is lacking in many developing countries. The special tools and methodologies are needed to conduct assessments for developing realistic set on NDCs. This College will provide information about energy related climate and sustainable development issues and interlinkages, and training on evaluation of NDCs. The College is aimed at improving knowledge and skills needed for assessment of various energy technologies in relation to climate change and consequently provide national policy-makers with technically sound information. Topics: Climate change and sustainable development Energy demand and supply scenarios Enabling mechanisms for transition to low carbon energy options Methodological approaches for assessment of NDCs Case studies on assessment of NDCs Registration: There is no registration fee.
