Event: Reducing the error bars on climate predictions

Lecture presented by Ali Ramadhan, Graduate student, EAPS (Climate Science) 

Title: Reducing the error bars on climate predictions

Abstract: Starting with the first computational weather forecasts, a ridiculously crazy idea a hundred years ago, we'll see how modern climate models work and why uncertainties in climate predictions are so high despite their sophistication. Then I'll talk about how we're trying to reduce uncertainties in climate predictions by developing a new climate model in Julia that runs on massively parallel GPU accelerators and learns from observations and high-resolution simulations.

Study: Climate change may make it harder to reduce smog in some regions

MIT News
A modeling study shows that global warming will likely make it harder to reduce ground-level ozone, a respiratory irritant that is a key component of smog, by cutting nitrogen oxide emissions.

MIT News
For the coastal country of Bangladesh, once-in-a-century storm tides could strike every 10 years — or more often — by the end of the century, scientists report. In this photo, a Bangladeshi woman and child walk over the top of a sandbag embankment in Khulna on May 4, 2019.
