August 31, 2026 - September 2, 2026
The ACCESS Workshop on Land and Coupled Modelling will be held at Melbourne. Join us for three exciting days of events from 31 August – 2 September 2026.
Workshop themes:
- Coupled modelling
- Uses of Earth System Models versus Climate Models
- Response of the Earth system to externally forced changes
- Ocean-atmosphere-ice interactions
- Tropical climate variability and change (e.g. double ITCZ, El Niño Southern Oscillation, tropical Pacific SST trends)
- Representation of convection and deep ocean circulation at high latitudes
- Pathway towards high resolution coupled modelling with ACCESS.
Land modelling:
- Treatment of the carbon cycle in land models
- Latest developments in soil moisture and energy dynamics
- Characterisation and behaviour of Australian vegetation
- Modelling urban environments
- Land-atmosphere interactions.
CMIP7:
- State of the CMIP7 Fast Track submission (ACCESS-ESM1.6). Spin-up, scenarios and evaluation
- Latest developments in ACCESS-CM3, ACCESS-AM3, ACCESS-OM3 and progress towards ACCESS-ESM3
- Understanding, attribution and projections using CMIP7 Fast Track experiments: from Australasia to global
- Use of the Rapid Evaluation Framework for CMIP7 evaluation & research
- New emission-driven scenarios including net zero and overshoots.
