It is a great honor for National Science and Technology Center for Disaster Reduction （NCDR） to host the 2016 TCCIP workshop on Applications of Climate Change Projection at March 8th to 10th , 2016, New Taipei City, Taiwan. Since the Taiwan Climate Change Information and Projection （TCCIP） project of the Ministry of Science and Technology （MOST） of Taiwan being initiated in 2009, TCCIP project started to set up a platform to provide regional data downscaled from the climate projection of GCM data and information for users nationwide.

Another major task in TCCIP project is to apply downscaled data to various research fields. For example, the projection of decreases in tropical cyclones （TC） number and increases in TC rainfall intensity may induce significant influence on hydrology, water resource management, and disasters. The projection of rising temperature may indicate a great threat to agriculture and public health sectors. Accordingly, the purpose of the workshop is to demonstrate various critical and influential applications of climate projection data such as disaster management, hydrology, agriculture, ecology and public health. Experts from Europe, United States, Australia, Japan, and South East Asia will be invited to share their experiences in applying climate change projection science for enhancing infrastructure, decision making, and policy implementation.

The topics of the workshop will focus on the following three topics:

1. Climate Projection: From High Resolution Climate Model to Extreme Weather Events Analysis （ Monsoon / Tropical Cyclone / Others）
2. Climate Projection Applications: Hydrology and Hillslope disaster
3. Climate Projection Applications: Environment, Agriculture, Public Health and Others
