Please join us for this Climate Coffee on CLIM4cities: User engagement in developing high-resolution Urban Heat Island models<\/p>\n
CLIM4cities\u00a0is a\u00a0European Space Agency – ESA\u00a0funded project made up of a team of experts from the\u00a0Danish Meteorological Institute\u00a0and\u00a0+ATLANTIC. In the face of a changing climate, cities are becoming increasingly exposed to extreme weather events. Extreme temperature events such as heatwaves are becoming longer, more frequent and intense in cities, affecting society\u2019s most vulnerable populations, as well as health and energy sectors. Identifying vulnerable neighbourhoods within cities, projecting future climate scenarios, and understanding sector impacts from extreme temperature events are vital for addressing vulnerabilities, fostering resilience, and creating effective local adaptation strategies. CLIM4cities addresses these needs by fostering Machine Learning and Citizen Science for heatwave prediction and spatial impact assessments in urban areas.<\/p>\n
This talk will focus on the Citizen Science aspects of the project and on the implemented strategy for engaging with users.<\/p>\n
Our speaker<\/p>\n
Hjalte is a Climate Scientist at the National Centre for Climate Research of the\u00a0Danish Meteorological Institute.<\/p>\n
What is a Climate Coffee?<\/p>\n
#climatecoffees are short (circa 40 min: 20 min talk + 20 min Q&A), relaxed meetings for scientists to share ideas, discuss methods and communicate new results. They are open to speakers of all levels of seniority, we especially encourage early-career scientists to become a speaker. The Coffees are an exciting opportunity for scientists to build a network and disseminate recent results, peer-to-peer. We invite researchers from across the climate science community to join us for this series of regular online knowledge exchange events.<\/p>\n
Organisation<\/p>\n
The Climate Coffees are organized by the Horizon Europe project OCEAN:ICE, the Danish Meteorological Institute and the European Climate Research Alliance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
