Climate services come in many forms, depending on how tailored and data intensive they are, and whether they are designed for specific use or more as a platform for further refining. Climate information in its most generic form – climate related statistics, predictions, maps, tables etc. – are often produced by public research institutions and national weather services. In the more refined forms of climate services – consulting, tailored information products – private companies tend to have a larger role. There are also some organisations serving as brokers between suppliers and users of climate services.

Some examples of available online climate services:

  • Climate change impacts on summer and winter tourism in Europe: https://www.atlas.impact2c.eu/en/
  • Climate change Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability – Cross-country skiing in Finland: http://www.iav-mapping.net/U-C-IAV/skiing/
  • CLIMAMAP Climate Indices, e.g. for Styria: https://data.ccca.ac.at/en/dataset/climamap-climate-indizes-karten-steiermark-v01
  • The Finnish Climate Guide: http://climateguide.fi
