Aims and Objectives

The Working Group on Numerical Experimentation (WGNE) will organise the 7th hybrid Workshop on Systematic Errors in Weather and Climate Models, to be hosted by the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM) in Pune, India on 15th-19th February 2027.

The workshop will bring together a wide range of experts on simulating the Earth System, including atmosphere, ocean, waves, land surface, atmospheric composition, and associated disciplines, to advance the understanding of systematic simulation errors across all timescales. Particular emphasis will be placed on identifying errors in complex coupled systems and understanding their root causes. Progress in diagnosing and addressing systematic errors using a broad suite of tools, from classical methods to advanced technologies such as data assimilation and machine learning/AI, will be showcased. The workshop will foster active discussion on the relative merits of advancing physical models and parameterisations to address systematic errors versus applying bias-correction methods.

The workshop will review recent progress on the atmospheric systematic-error priorities identified at the 6th Workshop on Systematic Errors, while further expanding the focus to coupled systems.
