Climate Variability and Predictability Study (CLIVAR)
An interdisciplinary research effort within the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) focussing on the variability and predictability of the slowly varying components of the climate system. It investigates the physical and dynamical processes in the climate system that occur on seasonal, interannual, decadal and centennial time-scales.

Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment
Observes and models the hydrologic cycle and energy fluxes in the atmosphere, at the land surface, and in the upper oceans. GEWEX is an integrated program ultimately leading to the prediction of global and regional climate change.
www.gewex.org
Aims to harness the power of PCs in homes and businesses to predict the climate of the 21st century. Individuals can register to take part when the experiment starts (likely sometime 2001).
