Ice2sea - estimating the future contribution of continental ice to sea-level rise (ice2sea)
Start date: Mar 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2013,
The melting of continental ice (glaciers, ice caps and ice sheets) is a substantial source of current sea-level rise, and one that is accelerating more rapidly than was predicted even a few years ago. Indeed, the most recent report from Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change highlighted that the uncertainty in projections of future sea-level rise is dominated by uncertainty concerning continen ...

Comprehensive Modelling of the Earth system for better climate prediction and projection (COMBINE)
Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Oct 31, 2013,
"The European integrating project COMBINE brings together research groups to advance Earth system models (ESMs) for more accurate climate projections and for reduced uncertainty in the prediction of climate and climate change in the next decades. COMBINE will contribute to better assessments of changes in the physical climate system and of their impacts in the societal and economic system. The pro ...

The impact of climatic and environmental factors on personal ultraviolet radiation exposure and human health (ICEPURE)
Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Jan 31, 2013,
We will determine the adverse and beneficial health effects of personal UVR exposure and their relationships with climatic and environmental factors that modify the solar UVR spectrum. Date and time stamped personal electronic wristwatch dosimeters will be worn to measure individual UVR exposure over extended periods. Satellite and ground station data will be gathered to establish terrestrial UVR ...
