DEMETER Taiwan, 25-27 October 2003 Summary DEMETER multi-model hindcasts data set: 22-44 years available for 7 models (1958 – 2001) Extensive diagnostics and data publicly available Applications: end-to-end systems for seasonal prediction -> actual value feasibility of skilful predictions: malaria incidence, crop yield Multi-model improves over single-model ensembles: main improvement due to reliability skill also improves because of increase in resolution The future: EU-funded ENSEMBLES project (starts April 2004)
