As of August 2021, the Ontario Climate Consortium (OCC) has formally transitioned into a Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) climate change program.
As such, the OCC website is no longer being updated. However, the resources available on this site remain relevant and available for use.
For TRCA’s latest climate change projects and resources, please visit trca.ca/climate.
For any inquiries about TRCA’s climate services, please contact Noah.Gaetz.
Programs
The Ontario Climate Consortium helps end users figure out the climate questions they need to ask, and connects them with researchers who can deliver the answers. We develop projects in three key areas.
Climate Information
Custom Analysis Projects leveraging completed analysis or existing data sets.
Applied Climate Science Primary research into the use of climate information.
Adaptation and Mitigation
Planning Support Technical support and guidance to facilitate risk-based planning.
Research Support Research projects designed to inform responses and create tools to support the adaptation process.
Research Mobilization
The OCC Symposium A flagship event showcasing the work of top climate researchers and thought leaders.
Communications & Engagement Collaborative efforts with researchers and end users to maximize the utility and visibility of OCC research projects.
