We thank the modelling centres/groups who responded to both consultations for their considered input and suggestions. The results were analysed and discussed within the CMIP Panel, WGCM Infrastructure Panel (WIP), Strategic Ensemble Design Task Team, and with the proposing MIPs. The CMIP AR7 Fast Track proposal was presented to, and endorsed by, the WGCM on March 20th 2024. Your input is greatly appreciated.
The CMIP Panel and WGCM Infrastructure Panel (WIP) continue to shape the future CMIP structure and delivery plans in close coordination with the CMIP Task Teams and through regular engagement with WCRP and the wider community. Reflecting concerns about the burden CMIP6 placed on modelling centres/groups, the CMIP Panel have proposed a more continuous approach for model intercomparison along with a targeted “AR7 Fast Track” set of experiments designed to set priorities for the running of simulations to align with the needs, and likely ambitious timeline, of the IPCC 7th assessment cycle.
This page provides links to all relevant information regarding the AR7 Fast Track consultation process with modelling centres/groups. Questions or requests for clarifications can be submitted via the Q&A forum or directly to .
