The Rossby Centre is the climate modelling research unit at SMHI, the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute. The Centre was built up as the core resource of SWECLIM, the Swedish Regional Climate Modelling Programme, 1996-2003. Today, research activities at the Rossby Centre focus on regional climate modelling covering meteorological, oceanographic and hydrological aspects as well as supercomputing. Work is conducted both on model development and evaluation as well as modelling applications on process studies, climate system studies, climate change research and impact studies.
