CPLAN involved in new climate change initiative
27 November 2009
The School is one of six partner schools in the University involved in a Wales-wide consortium to study the impact of climate change and considerably enhance the climate science profile of Wales.
Cardiff has joined forces with the universities of Aberystwyth, Bangor, and Swansea in the Climate Change Consortium of Wales (C3W), a £4 million initiative to be financed by the Welsh Assembly Government (WAG) through the Higher Education Funding Council for Wales (HEFCW). Together, they will address the four Grand Challenges and themes identified by C3W: Earth system modelling; sea-level change; hazard evaluation, mitigation and adaptation; and the Welsh dimension of climate change.
