NERC is organising a workshop to gather views on the key challenges, opportunities, and drivers for new approaches to modelling in environmental sciences.

Large scale modelling and simulation provide the foundation to our understanding and addressing of many complex environmental challenges and research questions across environmental science domains.

To remain at the forefront of international scientific excellence, environmental models must evolve to integrate ever growing flows of data. They must embed new data science approaches and embrace (and be able to run on) new and forthcoming national compute architectures, such as Artificial Intelligence Research Resource.

Through this facilitated event, NERC aims to provide the community with an opportunity to share their views on the future of environmental models for environmental sciences.  Information gathered will contribute to current scoping around how NERC could best support:

  • new modelling approaches
  • the ability to exploit the evolving compute landscape for the benefit of environmental science

If you would like to participate, then you must register in advance and provide some information on why you would like to attend the event. Places are limited, therefore if the event is oversubscribed, a selection of participants will be undertaken by NERC with the outcome notified to all on 3 May 2024.

The event will be held in a central location in London, the venue is to be confirmed.
