2019 International Workshop on Climate Prediction: Past, Present, and Future

In order to provide an opportunity to review the main scientific and operational advances in climate prediction on the sub-seasonal and seasonal time scales, as well as the challenges, limitations, and future directions, APCC is hosting an international workshop on climate prediction in Taipei, Chinese Taipei, co-hosed by the Central Weather Bureau of Chinese Taipei. The purpose of the workshop is (i) to bring together the scientists and producers who are at the forefront of sub-seasonal and seasonal climate prediction, with a major focus on ensemble forecasting and (ii) to strength interaction and enhance partnerships between the research and operational communities.

Theme

  • The Present and Future of Sub-Seasonal and Seasonal Climate Prediction

Period & Venue

  • June 3 - 4, 2019 / International Conference Room, Central Weather Bureau (CWB), Chinese Taipei

Host

  • APEC Climate Center & Central Weather Bureau of Chinese Taipei

Keynote Session: Climate Prediction: Where are we now?

Chaired by Dr. Jin Ho Yoo, Director of Climate Services and Research Division, APCC

Keynote Session explores the current status of sub-seasonal and seasonal climate predictions with a major focus on ensemble forecasting and forecast skill, as well as the current status, progress, and future prospects in leading organizations involved in climate prediction (e.g., research, operation, policy making, and user communities) for more reliable and useful climate forecast information.

Session I: [Operational Issues] Current Status and Progress of Seasonal Prediction System

Chaired by Dr. Emily Becker, Scientist of Climate Prediction Center, NCEP/NWS/NOAA, USA

Session I discusses the current status, progress, and limitations of current Multi-Model Ensemble (MME) prediction systems from various operation centers for sub-seasonal and seasonal climate forecasts. Cases are explored as examples of challenges and successes in order to improve the accuracy of the seasonal forecast information and discuss the research needed to improve MME, as well as the strategy to address prediction issues faced in MME operations.
