Synopsis

VolMIP is a protocol-driven international project aiming at coordinating the activities of different Research Institutes involved in numerical climate modelling focused on a multi-model assessment of climate models' performance under strong volcanic forcing conditions.

Publications

Consider publishing your VolMIP-related research in the inter-journal Special Issue "The Model Intercomparison Project on the climatic response to Volcanic forcing (VolMIP)" (ESD/ACP/CP/GMD)
