Adaptation-oriented seamless predictions of European climate

The ASPECT project pushes the frontiers of knowledge by providing seamless climate predictions
covering timescales that go from the next months to 30 years into the future, with the capacity to
lead to a step change in the provision of climate information and services for adaptation. Applying
a knowledge co-production approach where users are at the centre of the research, the project aims
to embed fit-for-purpose climate information into societally important climate change adaptation
decisions across various sectors, time scales, spatial scales and levels of decision-making. Thus,
the project explores whether and how climate services that have been co-developed with particular
users through impact case studies (i.e. in the agriculture, finance, governance, disaster response, and
humanitarian sectors) can be scaled up to meet the decision-making and planning needs of a broader
range of sectoral users and across all levels of governance. Eventually, the project will produce a
climate information delivery system and a capable and enabled community of practice that ensures
the uptake of cutting edge climate information and methods. Although the project focus will be
on European climate information, it will also look into areas of wider policy interest (e.g., disaster
preparedness) and regions of European relevance.
