CLIVAR (Climate and Ocean: Variability, Predictability and Change) is one of the six core projects of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP). CLIVAR’s mission is to understand the dynamics, the interaction, and the predictability of the climate system with emphasis on ocean-atmosphere interactions.
Pan-CLIVAR 2025 will bring together CLIVAR members from all panels, Research Foci, and scientific steering group (SSG), as well as representatives from WCRP core-projects and external partners with the aims:
– to develop ideas and input for the next CLIVAR science and implementation plan;
– to foster interactions across panels, WCRP core projects, and partners;
– to evaluate progress, formulate future priorities, and enhance members cohesion;
– to establish new research foci; and
– to engage scientists and stakeholders in southeast Asia.
This will be the second Pan-CLIVAR after the first one in 2014 in The Hague. The 2014 meeting was instrumental for the development of the current decadal CLIVAR science plan (2018-2028). The 2025 Pan-CLIVAR Meeting (Pan-CLIVAR 2025) will initiate the formulation of the next science plan.
Pan-CLIVAR 2025 will be held in hybrid mode (in-person and on-line), consisting of individual panels and Research Foci meetings, SSG sessions, cross-panel meetings, plenaries, and a 1-day Symposium on 24 September with breakout sessions in the morning of 25 September. This year 2025 marks the 30th Anniversary of CLIVAR.
Participation to Pan CLIVAR Meeting is by invitation only and is prioritized for CLIVAR members, partners and the WCRP activities. The Symposium, however, is open to all, subject to seat limitation.
