The recommendations are based on national experience and focus on the parts that could be subject to improved international cooperation.

Discussion on possible subjects of cooperation, for example: the use of common ensembles of climate model projections (including emission scenarios), comparison of downscaling tools, development of common methods for bias correction in model output, comparison of tools for time series generation (including weather generators), development of common guidance material about how to use the scenario information, organization of joint workshops and sessions at international conferences, etc.

11.10-12.20 | European cooperation - which form?
Discussion on the form of cooperation, including questions such as: to what extent is cooperation beneficial, which links to ongoing international activities exist, which part of generating climate change information and stakeholder dialogue needs to be done nationally and where can European collaboration add value, which funding possibilities are available, and which possibilities exist to establish a consortium that responds to an EU call, what is the position of the NMHSs, EUMETNET and WMO, what role do varying legislative and organisational settings play, how do we deal with the perceived legitimacy of the information provider.
