6 Proposition for a Participation of FUNCEME in Project CLARIS FUNCEME’s Potential Participation in CLARIS According Five Tasks: A) Effective Participation in CLARIS 2005-2006: Task 1: CLARIS-WP3.2: A Contribution for Providing Regional Daily Data Base for Climate Trends and Extreme Event Studies (Nordeste) Task 2: CLARIS-WP4.2: Climate and Vector-Borne Epidemics: Action on Dengue in Nordeste B) Expertise – Processing Collaboration in CLARIS 2005-2006 (Effective Participation in Post-CLARIS - after 2006) Task 3: CLARIS-WP3.1: Climate Change Downscalling in the Sub- Tropical (and Tropical) South America Task 4: CLARIS-WP4.1: Climatic Regional Impacts in Agriculture: Action in the Nordeste Semi-Arid C) Effective Participation in Post-CLARIS - after 2006 Task 5: CLARIS-WP4.3: Cloud-Aerosol-Radiation Observation Facility

7 A) Effective Participation in CLARIS 2005-2006: Task 1: CLARIS-WP3.2: High-quality regional daily data base for climate trends and extreme event studies Principal investigator: Meiry Sayuri Sakamoto (FUNCEME) Proposition for a Participation of FUNCEME in Project CLARIS

12 A) Effective Participation in CLARIS 2005-2006: Task 2: CLARIS-WP4.2: Climate and Vector-borne Epidemics: A Pilot Action on Dengue in Brazil (Fortaleza, Ceará) Principal investigators: Jacques Servain (IRD) and Nicolas Degallier (IRD) = An new IRD-FUNCEME-SESACE-CEVEPI Cooperation including in CATIN (IRD-CNPq) Proposition for a Participation of FUNCEME in Project CLARIS

13 Experimentation ClimatMosquitoDengue Impact (hourly/daily) Main objective : To establish a system of alert for the dengue outbreaks

14 Statistical analysis of meteo data (hourly) and daily cases of dengue (1999-present)

20 B) Expertise – Processing Collaboration in CLARIS 2005-2006 (Effective Participation in Post-CLARIS - after 2006) Task 4: CLARIS-WP4.1: Climatic Regional Impacts in Agriculture: A Pilot Action in Nordeste Semi-Arid Principal Investigator: Eduardo Sávio Passos Rodrigues Martins (FUNCEME) = In Collaboration with an IRD-FUNCEME Cooperation including in CATIN (IRD-CNPq) Proposition for a Participation of FUNCEME in Project CLARIS

21 Methodology

22 FUNCEME is working within a research and delivery network (CRAMALA) which fully integrates scientists and stakeholders to address comprehensively the issue of climate related risks in agriculture for improving productivity, profitability and risk management Sponsor: IAI Cooperation: IRI See the note « FUNCEME’s Potential Participation in CLARIS » for details

23 C) Effective Participation in Post-CLARIS - after 2006 Task 5: CLARIS-WP4.3: Cloud-Aerosol-Radiation Interaction Principal investigator: Alexandre Araujo Costa (FUNCEME) Proposition for a Participation of FUNCEME in Project CLARIS

24 FUNCEME participates in a scientific program of cloud physics and aerosols observations using the facilities of the State University of Ceará (UECE) that includes an instrumented aircraft This aircraft participated in different field campaigns over Northeast Brazil (“Ceará Experiment”) and the Amazon (LBA-SMOCC-EMfiN!)

26 With that instrumented aircraft, FUNCEME could contribute significantly to better understand the physical processes concerning cloud and precipitation development over distinct places in South America See the notes « FUNCEME’s Potential Participation in CLARIS » and “avião-escopo.doc” (in portuguese) for details

27 The Participation of FUNCEME in CLARIS (and Post-CLARIS) Could Bring: A Complete Agro-Hydro-Meteorological Data Set (Ceará, Nordeste) Extension of the Knowledge in the Climat-Dengue Relationship (with different climatic conditions) Competence and Cooperation in Downscalling Processes (RSM, RAMS, …) Experience in Climate-Agriculture Relationship (in association with other partners: IRI, …) Technical and Scientific Contribution in the Cloud-Aerosol- Radiation Studies (different regions, different conditions) In conclusion …

28 Furthermore … FUNCEME proposes to organize, at Fortaleza, in June 2006, A Dedicated South America Climate Congress (including CLARIS-2) in collaboration with the EGS (European Geophysical Society) and the CLARIS Community
