From June 19 to 21, 2023, the most significant European event on climate change adaptation took place in Dublin, the ECCA 2023 conference, organized as part of the MAGICA project coordinated by CMCC.

The event caters to a diverse audience, including climate adaptation experts, researchers, policymakers, local authorities, small businesses already engaged in the field, as well as youth organizations and interested citizens. The conference's goal is to inspire adaptation by proposing solutions at every level, exchanging knowledge, and creating connections. Mitigation measures must be accompanied by adaptation actions to achieve recovery, resilience, conservation, and restoration of biodiversity, citizen well-being, and financial security.

The poster "Extreme Events Monitoring: a climate service for interactive classification of events in Italy" regarding the climate service "Extreme Events Monitoring (EEM)," developed by the REMHI division of the CMCC Foundation, is available on the conference's website (https://www.ecca2023.eu/). This service provides essential information on the location and frequency of extreme events in Italy, offering users various outputs, including maps, tailored meteorological reports, and high-resolution climate analyses.

The climate service "EEM" considers major atmospheric events with socio-economic impacts, including abnormal heat and cold, intense precipitation, drought, and wind and rainstorms. The events, classified based on their occurrence and magnitude, are displayed through daily summary maps and made available through hourly csv files.

The "Extreme Events Monitoring" product, available through the Dataclime platform (www.dataclime.com), allows users to download maps with accompanying text files containing event information and meteorological reports for the days of interest. Registered users can download the first three months of 2022 for free to assess the service's potential.
