The International Conference On Regional Climate - Cordex 2013 will bring together the international community of regional climate scientists to present and discuss results from WCRP regional climate studies, with a particular emphasis on the CORDEX initiative. The first day of the meeting will feature two important pre-conference events: High-Level Session with the participation of the European Commissioners for Research & Innovation and for Climate Action, where the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) presents key findings from the IPCC Working Group I Contribution to the Fifth Assessment Report Climate Change 2013: The Physical Science Basis. This will be followed by a Stakeholder Dialogue focusing on how science-based regional climate information can best serve the needs of regional decision-makers. This segment is intended to provide the global to regional socio-economic and policy context within which WCRP regional climate research operates. The second segment of the conference over the following three days is organised around the key scientific results from Phase I of the CORDEX project, encompassing results from all participating regions worldwide.
