Emerging Needs and Approaches for Climate Services: Understanding and Developing innovative approaches to user oriented climate services
Session ID#: 83084
Session Description:
The development and provision of climate services currently comes from an array of institutions, usually focused on single sectors or time horizons.
Climate services are the combination of monitoring, forecasts, projections, risk assessments, and communication that requires ongoing interaction among
diverse sectors and communities with varied backgrounds. Climate services are often expressed across time scales (two weeks to a century) and
geographies (local to regional to international). As climate impacts emerge and new knowledge comes on line, the need for information will continue
to expand throughout society as will the need to coordinate services systematically. This session welcomes contributions on approaches to developing
and coordinating climate services that build resilience through (1) the provision and use of data including risk-based information,
(2)predictions and scenarios across time scales, 3) translation/interpretation of knowledge for practical use, 4)mechanisms for governing the services
process from development to use and evaluation at different scales.
