Climate Model and Climate Data Workshop

C2SM offers a Climate Model and Climate Data Workshop, open to the entire C2SM community, with a particular focus on researchers working on climate impacts. This workshop is part of our technical training .

In this workshop, we address key questions such as "How do climate models work?" and discuss important considerations when using climate model data. We also provide a brief introduction to reanalysis and observational data.

The workshop features a hands-on session where participants learn how to work with climate data. Topics include:

  • Understanding the widely used NetCDF data format
  • Reading NetCDF data into Python and R
  • Performing simple calculations using Climate Data Operators (CDO)

First held in December 2023, this workshop is now offered annually.
