2022 Frontera User Meeting - Ping Chang

Caption

Oceanographer Ping Chang of Texas A&M University is one of the leading climate scientists in the world and a contributing author to three chapters in the Fifth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Chang gave the keynote presentation at the 2022 Frontera Users Meeting. His current project on Frontera aims to improve seasonal-to-decadal forecasts for fisheries management in the California upwelling system that supplies nutrients for fish and is impacted by climate change. Using Frontera, his team was among the first in the world to complete long-range IPCC climate simulations at resolution high enough to discern weather extremes such as tropical cyclones and fine-scale ocean features such as coastal upwelling.
