CORDEX Central America and South America
Training Workshop on Downscaling Techniques
La Paz, Bolivia, June 25-27 2018
Objectives of the Training Workshop:
The Workshop is intended for PhD students and early career researchers with a background in regional climate science. The main objectives are to build capacity in regional climate downscaling techniques and to coordinate future CORDEX activities in the domains over South and Central America/Latin America and the Caribbean.
The 3-day Workshop to be held in La Paz, Bolivia, 25th - 27th June 2018 aims to:
- Train participants on Empirical Statistical Downscaling (ESD) methodologies and perform hands-on ESD experiments.
- Explore potential collaborative research studies based on CORDEX products (ESD and Regional Climate Model simulations) across select regional climate phenomena.
Call for abstracts and financial support
Participants must provide a statement of interest, a short CV (three pages or less), a letter of recommendation and submit an abstract for a poster presentation during the Workshop.
