The yearly general assembly of the European - Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment (EURO-CORDEX) - took place from 22nd to 25th of January, 2024. During four days about 100 international scientists gathered at GERICS and virtually in order to share science findings and jointly discuss how to organize their voluntary engagement in CORDEX. They also celebrated the 15th anniversary of the EURO-CORDEX initiative.

Future research was planned with respect to different topics, such as modeling urban areas, downscaling the global CMIP6 simulations, organizing convection permitting simulations, model emulators and statistical methods and the use of regional climate ensemble simulations in climate service products.

EURO-CORDEX is the European branch of the international CORDEX initiative, a program that operates under the auspices of the WCRP the World Climate Research Program (WCRP). The purpose of CORDEX is to organize an internationally coordinated framework to produce improved regional climate change projections for all land regions world-wide.
