Environmental meteorology webinars: from the fundamentals of climate to operational applications

Free webinar series (25 February – 10 June 2021)

ICTP & University of Trento Seminar Series

Overview

This series of lectures 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.

These seminars are open to all those with an interest in climate and weather and also contribute to the training offered to ICTP pre-PhD diploma programme that provides scholarships to developing country students to and The Master of Science programme in Environmental Meteorology offered by the University of Trento and the University of Innsbruck, Austria.

Organizers

Adrian Tompkins (ICTP) and Simona Bordoni (Trento)
