- New research may lead to better climate models for global warming, El Niсo
12-07-2007 · EurekAlert!
From nine different countries, 150 scientists are starting a program to gain insights about the Earth's climate and the complex system involving the oceans, atmosphere and land. They are studying the Southeastern Pacific Ocean off South America's west coast -- research that should improve global computer climate models, which would lead to improved predictions about global warming and El Niсos, said C. Roberto Mechoso, UCLA professor of atmospheric and oceanic sciences, who chairs the program.
