Workshop on methods and tools for understanding and communicating climate change scenarios

The Cost Action CA21158 “Enhancing Small-Medium IsLands resilience by securing the sustainability of Ecosystem Services (SMILES)

organizes a training workshop on methods and tools for understanding and communicating climate change scenarios. This half-day online event targets students, academics, scientists and practitioners interested in studying Ecosystem Services, who might not, however, have a strong background in climate and atmospheric sciences. We will cover topics of broader interest, such as an Introduction to Climatology, essential Climate Statistics, and the basics of Climate Change, but also more specific ones, such as sources of Climate Information, Climate Change Projections and Impacts focusing on Ecosystem Services. Priority will be given to early career scientists and participants of the SMILES COST Action. There are no fees for attending the event, while an attendance certificate will be issued for all participants.
