A master level course “Climate model simulations (7.5 hp)” will be given at the Department of Physical Geography from 6 May to 7 June 2019. The course will teach the knowledge of the climate models, model experiment design, as well as tools and skills on model output analysis. The students will analyse the model data in different climate scenarios from the past to future, focus on understanding mechanisms behind the climate change and climate variability. The learning activities include lectures, research seminars, group exercise and results presentations. Several invited scientists will give lectures on topics such as ENSO and NAO variability, glacial-interglacial transition and abrupt change, future climate change etc. The course has been previously given as summer course in 2017 and 2018, and 12 Ph.D. students from Bolin Centre have participated the course. There are a few places available this year for Ph.D. students. If you are interested, please feel free to contact This email address is being protected from spambots.

Summer Course on Climate Model Simulations This course will be held in Beijing, China. In this two-week intensive course, we will introduce the climate model simulations from complex climate models. The course intends to teach students to understand the climate models, provide them with the knowledge on climate model experiment design, as well as tools and skills on model output analysis, to investigate certain scientific questions. We will take the different climate scenarios from the past to future, focus on understanding mechanism behind the climate change and climate variability. Several internationally recognized lecturers will give lecture on different topics. Besides the lectures, the course contains exercises on model data analysis, group discussions, presentations and mini research proposal writing. The learning outcomes are to understand what a climate model is and how does it work; know how to design a model experiment according to scientific question; be able to visualize the model data and interpret; formulate and investigate research questions with help of a climate model. Please send an application by addressing the background of your research project and motivation to Qiong Zhang (This email address is being protected from spambots.
