Project office

Under the guidance and at the direction of ESMO, all CMIP activities are overseen by a coordinated pair of subcommittees: the CMIP Panel and the WCRP ESMO Infrastructure Panel (WIP).  

In March 2022, the CMIP International Project Office opened alongside ESA’s Climate Office at its European Centre for Space Applications and Telecommunications (ECSAT) facility in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom.

The CMIP International Project Office coordinates the project under the governance of, and is part of, the Earth System Modelling and Observations (ESMO) Core Project, which coordinates all modelling, data and observations activities across WCRP and their key partners.
