Workshops



"Projections of Climate Change, Evapotranspiration, and Net Primary Production over Iran's Climatic Zones using General Circulation Models"


We will explain how to use climate-based models for projections of evapotranspiration (ET) and net primary production (NPP) over Iran's climatic zones under changing climate by General Circulation Models (GCMs). Additionally, the sensitivity of ET and NPP in response to climate change across diverse climates of Iran will be examined. This cooperative workshop is a part of a joint project supported by Iran National Science Foundation (INSF) and Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS)  to enhance the scientific connections and cooperation between Belt and Road Initiative (B&R) countries.
