Wiki CORDEX-CORE
Within the CORDEX Community the Coordinated Output for Regional Evaluations (CORE) activity was initiated to provide a core set of comprehensive and homogeneous projections across almost all CORDEX domains. The resulting climate projections will presumably build the base for future climate impact studies world wide and serve as a solid base for IPCC AR6 WGII.
