organisation profile
CMCC has a network structure composed by research divisions, partners, and associated centres, which link both private and public institutions. The research divisions are distributed in seven Italian headquarters, which investigate multidisciplinary topics of climate science research. CMCC, developing global and regional high-resolution models, aims to study the causes and the consequences of climate variability with a particular focus on the Mediterranean area. CMCC's research assures the maintenance of highly reliable products and high computational capacity and the data produced by the Centre are delivered to the scientific community. The Centre collaborates with international research centres and promotes its own development with new research methods to ensure the updating and the quality of its products.
The Numerical Applications and Scenarios (ANS) division focuses on the study, above all through numerical simulations, of climate variability and of the physical-biogeochemical interactions in the climate system and on the implementation of a pre-operational system for short-term ocean forecasting. The tools used by ANS Division are characterized by numerical models of different complexity and realism, from ocean models at global and regional (Mediterranean and Adriatic in particular) scales to coupled models, which consider the atmosphere- ocean - sea-ice - vegetation - marine biogeochemistry components. The objectives of ANS – CMCC division are: development and implementation of an Earth System Model, development of a pre-operational ocean forecasting system at global and regional scales, global ocean re-analyses production for studies on climate variability and for the initialization of seasonal and decadal forecasting systems.
