About the Hackathon

TThe UCL-MOAP Hacking-the-climate event is a 4-day hackathon event, organised by UCL Geography and UCL Statistical Science. Over the course of the event, teams of students from many different departments will work on challenges related to the Met Office’s UK Climate Projections ‘18. We encourage contributions from early career researchers, including PhDs and Postdocs.

The hackathon is jointly funded by UCL Geography, UCL Statistical Science, the Met Office and the UCL eResearch Domain Community-Based Initiative scheme, with support from UCL Research Software Development.
