From 2002-2008, he was one of the Vice-Chairs of the expert Working Group I of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007.
The event has been organised within the framework of the 10th General Assembly of the 'Climate Limited-area Modelling' (CLM) community, taking place between 29 September and 2 October 2015 in Luxembourg.
