Collaborations

For this edition of our annual conference, EGI is closely collaborating with Fondazione Centro Euro-Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici (CMCC), based in Lecce. CMCC is an Italian research centre dedicated to climate and climate-related research, including climate variability and its causes and consequences, carried out through numerical models ranging from the Global Earth System to regional models within the Euro-Mediterranean area.

In the EGI Federation, CMCC represents IS-ENES, the Infrastructure for the European Network for Earth System Modelling, whose objectives are to:

  • Pursue the integration of the Earth’s climate system modelling community and prepare the sustainability of its infrastructure
  • Foster the common development of models and tools, and the efficient use of HPC
  • Support the exploitation of model data by the Earth system science, climate change impact, and climate service communities.

Moreover, CMCC is a partner in iMagine, where experts contribute to the use case of oil spill detection from satellite images, and in interTwin, contributing to the environmental modules of the Digital Twin Engine.
