Sponsored by the Mongolian Academy of Sciences (MAS) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), the GOSC International Programme Office of the Computer Network Information Center, CAS, and the Department of Research and Monitoring, MAS, co-hosted a GOSC Mongolian training workshop with the Committee on Data of the International Science Council (CODATA) in Ulaanbaatar on November 14-15, 2024. As part of the GOSC series, the workshop was themed "Open Science Infrastructures for Disaster Risk Reduction." The workshop attracted 20 local participants from relevant departments in Mongolia and was attended online by more than 80 participants from around the world.
Prof. Wu Chenglai's report mainly revolved around the development of climate models and Earth system models, the development of sub-seasonal to seasonal climate prediction systems, and their applications in predicting disasters such as heavy rain, drought, and sandstorms. He emphasized that climate prediction systems, along with the monitoring databases, supercomputing platforms, and visualization systems that support their operation, are key infrastructure for disaster prevention and mitigation. He expressed his hope to cooperate with domestic and foreign experts, scholars, and relevant industry personnel to jointly promote the improvement and application services of numerical climate models.
