Abstract

The Mathematics and Climate Research Network (MCRN) was invited to run an informal Climate Modeling Workshop as part of the Intensive Research Programme on Advances on Nonsmooth Dynamics hosted by the Centre de Recerca MatemĂ tica (CRM). The workshop was attended by a core group of about 10 participants with a nice mix of junior and senior researchers. A summary of the proceedings of the workshop is presented here.
