2nd Training Event

01-03 June 2026
at İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi (İTÜ), Türkiye.

Training on climate variability, predictability, prediction and services at seasonal-to-decadal timescales in the Mediterranean.

Aims:
(i) training national hydro-meteorological agencies in the Mediterranean.
(ii) discussing state-of-the-art and identifying knowledge gaps in climate research and application.

Structure: plenary-discussion sessions in the mornings, with a more institutional focus on big projects and initiatives; and technical-scientific sessions in the afternoons.

Output: promote understanding and use of seasonal-to-decadal climate forecasts in the Mediterranean.

Action details

Seasonal-to-decadal climate forecasting has progressed considerably in recent years, but prediction skill over the Mediterranean is still limited.

COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is a funding organisation for research and innovation networks. Our Actions help connect research initiatives across Europe and beyond and enable researchers and innovators to grow their ideas in any science and technology field by sharing them with their peers. COST Actions are bottom-up networks with a duration of four years that boost research, innovation and careers.
