The workshop comprised of a number of presentations from academics and practitioners from the UK and US, including <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ncl.ac.uk\/ceser\/people\/staff\/clairewalsh.html\">Claire Walsh<\/a> from CESER, who presented the group\u2019s work on<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ncl.ac.uk\/ceser\/researchprogramme\/integratedsystemsdemonstrationscities\/\"> long term changes and integrated assessment \u00a0in London<\/a>. Participants came from a wide variety of disciplines:\u00a0 statistics, climate modelling and analysis, climate impacts, decision making, policy, communication, and social science concerned with vulnerability and climate change.
