23MedCLIVAR is a project that promotes coordination of the large scientific community engaged in Mediterranean climate research. The main goals of MedCLIVAR include reconstruction of Mediterranean past climate variability and extremes and natural hazards, the description of patterns and mechanisms characterising its space-time variability, the identification of the forcing parameters responsible for the observed changes, and its response to future emission scenarios. The project focuses on long instrumental data as well as documentary and natural proxy evidence resolving different time and spatial scales. All these data sources are important for the construction of high quality data sets, in order to extend the record of past Mediterranean climate variability over decadal and centennial timescales.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
