Climate services are becoming an important strategy for delivering climate information to users around the world. In many countries, National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs) charged with providing diverse audiences. foster adaptation risks in reducing vulnerability developing world contexts. However, production delivery of user-oriented place new burdens on NMHSs require skillsets, partnerships, infrastructure. this paper, we assess capabilities 22 Caribbean Small Island...

Abstract: Climate change and its impacts on the environment have become more than ever a worldwide challenging issue. Hence, decision makers are seeking reliable climate-impact models to take long term appropriate actions against this phenomena. In study, ten regional climate (RCMs) obtained from European Coordinated Downscaling Experiment (EURO CORDEX) platform evaluated Chiese river catchment located in northeast of Italy. The models’ ensembles assessed terms uncertainty error...

Extreme precipitation events (EPE), especially those leading to floods and landslides, are devastating society. Predicting these in advance can help disaster managers carry out plans of action respond effectively any oncoming adverse events. Sub-seasonal forecasts, which aim predict the weather with 2 weeks months advance, provide valuable actionable information managers. Given potential usefulness end users, it is vital assess skill sub-seasonal forecasts predicting EPEs. However, given...
