Beijing, November 27 (Xinhua) — A Research Center for Earth System Forecasting has been established at Lanzhou University, located in Lanzhou, Gansu Province, northwest China. This center aims to provide key technical support for China's development of a high-precision Earth system forecasting mechanism and to develop a new scientific and innovative architecture in this field, focusing on western China, serving subscribers nationwide, and covering the Central Asian region.
According to the Zhongguo Xinwenwang news portal, the new research center was officially opened on the sidelines of a symposium attended by more than 200 meteorological experts and scientists in Lanzhou. The symposium focused on key scientific issues in this field and key technologies for forecasting Earth system parameters, particularly those related to the multi-sphere coupling of the Earth system and complex topography in arid regions, as well as strategic national meteorological services related to new energy, modern agriculture, intelligent transportation, and low-altitude economics.
Forecasting Earth system parameters is a cutting-edge interdisciplinary scientific discipline based on mathematical and physical modeling approaches and high-performance computing technologies. It is of vital importance in the national meteorological sphere.
The new center will operate as a permanent research facility led by academicians from the Chinese Academy of Engineering, with the participation of Lanzhou University, the Earth System Forecasting Center of the China Meteorological Administration, and the Gansu Provincial Meteorological Administration (Northeast China).
The Earth System Forecasting Research Center will focus on developing relevant technologies in arid areas, while also providing key technological support for socio-economic development in areas such as new energy, modern agriculture, low-altitude economy, and smart transportation, and will also propose a Chinese meteorological service project for the development of international cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative, said Zhang Qiang, head of the new center. -0-
