Dr Zebedee Nicholls from our team has delivered updated historical greenhouse gas concentrations, ensuring that the latest climate model simulations are based on consistent, high-quality input data. He is now working closely with collaborators around the world to finalise future scenario concentrations. This work is essential for generating reliable projections of future climate under a range of socio-economic pathways. The full methodology and dataset will be described in a forthcoming new open-access publication in Geoscientific Model Development, in the meantime, for an overview of CMIP7, see the publication available here.

ESM Evaluation
Rapid Evaluation Framework for CMIP7
The Rapid Evaluation Framework for CMIP7 has officially launched! Climate Resource was proud to contribute. Jared Lewis, our CTO, leads the REF implementation team for the Assessment Fast Track REF. This milestone marks a major step toward the systematic evaluation of climate models in the CMIP7 Assessment Fast Track, which will inform the seventh IPCC Assessment Report (AR7).
The REF is a project of the World Climate Research Program (WCRP), made possible by resources from European Space Agency and US Department of Energy and the expertise of the following software packages and organisations: Climate Resource, eScience Center, ESMValTool, ILAMB, IOMB, PMP and CMEC.
