Event Overview
The ETH-Klimarunde 2026 is set to take place on November 10, 2026, from 16:30 to 20:00 at the ETH Zurich main building. This year's theme is "How High-Resolution Models Help Manage Weather Risks." The event will feature a series of engaging presentations and a panel discussion aimed at exploring the latest research and applications of high-resolution climate models.
Program Details
The event will be divided into two parts:
- Presentations and Panel Discussion (16:30 - 18:00): This segment will include three short presentations followed by a panel discussion, providing insights into the role of high-resolution models in addressing weather-related challenges.
- Roundtable Discussions and Networking (18:00 - 20:00): Attendees will have the opportunity to engage directly with approximately 30 experts from various fields during informal roundtable discussions, allowing for in-depth conversations and Q&A sessions.
Registration
Participation in the ETH-Klimarunde is free, but registration is required due to limited seating. The registration deadline is October 27, 2026. For those unable to attend in person, the presentations and discussions will also be streamed online.
Importance of the Event
The ETH-Klimarunde serves as a crucial platform for bridging the gap between scientific research and practical applications in climate risk management. As climate change continues to impact weather patterns, understanding and utilizing high-resolution models becomes increasingly vital for effective decision-making in urban planning and disaster management. This event aims to highlight these critical intersections and foster collaboration among researchers, policymakers, and practitioners.
