The 3rd Summer School on Theory, Mechanisms and Hierarchical Modeling of Climate Dynamics: Tropical Oceans, ENSO and their teleconnections, will be organized at ICTP, Trieste, Italy from 18 - 29 July 2022 in a hybrid format. Register here.

NPOCE, a CLIVAR endorsed project, organised its 2021 Scientific Steering Committee (SSC) annual meeting on 28th January 2022 by online platform. Wenju Cai and Sonya Legg, co-chairs of CLIVAR SSG, and Antonietta Capotondi, co-chair of CLIVAR PRP attended the meeting.

A new PICES Working Group on Climate Extremes and Coastal Impacts in the Pacific is under development to better understand the physical drivers and assess the predictability of extreme events and to identify indicators for the socioeconomic impacts from climate extremes.

The CLIVAR Pacific Region Panel (PRP) held a telecon on 19 November 2021 mainly to discuss candidates for the PRP membership and the options for a possible PRP in-person meeting. Nine PRP members attended the telecon.
