Climate Modelling Summer School

Climate models are important tools for understanding the Earth’s climate and assessing current and future risks of climate change. Our Climate Modelling Summer School covers the fundamental principles of climate modelling through a mixture of lectures and practical assignments over twelve days.

You will receive expert tuition from leading researchers from the National Centre for Atmospheric Science and the University of Reading.

During the first week, you will be introduced to numerical methods used in climate models and supported to implement your own numerical methods in Python.

In week two, you will develop advanced diagnostics and apply them to model output from SpeedyWeather, a fast and flexible atmospheric model.

With the assistance of leading scientists, you will go through the entire process of experimental design to scientific analysis and presentation.

If you want to become a climate modeller or work in the natural sciences, our Climate Modelling Summer School will provide the foundation you need.

We encourage UK-based and international post-doctoral researchers and PhD students to apply.
