Researching the global crossborder effects of extreme weather and economic dimension, e.g. emission trading, in Finland
Developing and assessing efficiency, criteria, concepts and methods of delivering climate change information
Developing new climate change service, which includes novel impact forecasts and scenarios in different time scales, also covering economic impacts
Developing climate change training and testing novel pilot products and services together with the users
