Capacity to model and forecast climate and environmental processes at different spatio-temporal scales has the potential to revolutionize our approach and ability to address many issues that concern us closely. It was to address these issues in an integrated manner and to generate a capability for multiscale forecasting that CEMP was initiated.

The Climate and Environmental Modelling Programme CEMP) addresses multi-disciplinary modelling issues in combining climate simulation, process modelling (energy, disease, crop etc) in a hierarchical (global to regional models) and multi-scale (downscaling, neural networks etc) modelling platform. The current topics of research are:

  •     Climate Simulation
  •     Monsoon Simulation
  •     Cyclone Simulation
  •     Extreme Events
  •     Process models
  •     Algorithms
  •     Agricultural Systems Modelling
