Climate Variability and Predictability Study (CLIVAR)

2024-06-26

CLIVAR is one of the WCRP programs, and aims to understand the physical processes responsible for climate variability and predictability on seasonal, interannual, decadal, and centennial time-scales, through observations and models.

An interdisciplinary research effort within the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) focussing on the variability and predictability of the slowly varying components of the climate system. It investigates the physical and dynamical processes in the climate system that occur on seasonal, interannual, decadal and centennial time-scales.
