For researchers
We aim to assist researchers that are members of, or associated to, the network in a number of ways. These include academic meetings, small travel grants for staff exchanges, funds for "hot topic" workshops and for links with our partner networks. We provide a list of useful links and resources including jobs and PhD studentship opportunities in this area. If you have suggestions for useful ways to improve the usefulness of these resources, please let us know.
CliMathNet Seminar Series
This is an occasional seminar series where members of CliMathNet can listen to seminars of interest to applications of mathematical sciences to climate and weather modelling. These seminars are held using WebEx virtual meeting software and are “no travel” seminars where we ask a speaker to give a 45-50 minute talk about research of interest to other members of CliMathNet. If you would like to offer to give a seminar, or propose someone to do so please contact

These seminars are delivered live using the web videoconferencing service WebEx. In order to receive, you will get a link from the CliMathNet newsletter that downloads an application to your computer. You will need a reasonable broadband service and microphone/speakers to receive the seminar. In addition, a webcam is needed if you are delivering the seminar.
Members are encouraged to offer seminars from their nodes, especially on topics that will be of wide interest and/or where you would like to have feedback from the wider network.
Please contact us if you have any suggestions!
