LONG-TERM CLIMATE DATA + ASSESSMENTS OF CHANGE
…describing climate variability and change at European scale
…placing high-impact extreme events in a historical context

• EURO4M reference historical databases of ECVs:
1) in-situ observations (CRU, GPCC, ECA&D)
2) satellite CDRs (CM-SAF)
3) regional reanalyses of past weather (new!)
Collocation meeting, REA, Brussels, 15 May 2013
• EURO4M reference historical databases of ECVs:
1) in-situ observations (CRU, GPCC, ECA&D)
long-term records (50-100yr) but sparse
2) satellite CDRs (CM-SAF)
spatially extensive but short (<30yr)
3) regional reanalyses of past weather (new!)
spatially and temporally complete but expensive and some model bias
Collocation meeting, REA, Brussels, 15 May 2013
• Dissemination: all 12 EURO4M datasets have factsheets and pointers on www.euro4m.eu
visualisation tool under development (also used for IS-ENES GCM portal, etc.)
nearly all datasets are published in papers in the scientific literature
maturity index would provide additional QA, but seems less adequate to answer the “fit-for-purpose” question which is user dependent, and difficult to capture in a single application performance index per ECV dataset

• Input data:
Collocation meeting, REA, Brussels, 15 May 2013
• From data to services (hand-over to downstream):
Climate Indicator Bulletins
Collocation meeting, REA, Brussels, 15 May 2013
Reference historical databases Climate Indicator Bulletins
bulletins present user-driven (integrated) information derived from ECV datasets
avoid handling terabytes of data
focus on impact relevant indicators(of extremes) including uncertainty estimates
first bulletin on Europeantemperature (for EEA)
Collocation meeting, REA, Brussels, 15 May 2013
• Application areas:
• EURO4M data and information is already used in a wide range of application areas including: monitoring policy-relevant indicators, driving impact models with time series of past and present-day climate (e.g. river discharge, coastal protection, agriculture, health, energy)
