Exciting news from Nanning, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region of the Chinese mainland! The Meteorological Administration of the Chinese mainland (CMA) just unveiled its first-ever Global Climate Dataset at the 4th China-ASEAN Meteorological Cooperation Forum. 🌍✨
This powerhouse dataset covers six major areas:
- Global surface & upper-air datasets
- Grid-based climate reconstructions
- CMA’s global atmospheric reanalysis
- Fengyun satellite land-surface datasets
- Fengyun satellite radiation datasets
- Ocean datasets
What’s cool? This data supports early warning systems, disaster risk reduction, AI-driven predictions, and climate research—essential tools for tackling typhoons and extreme weather. ⛈️🤖
You can now access the English version via the China Meteorological Data Network and the World Meteorological Centre (Beijing) website. Data geeks, unite! 🔗
But wait, there’s more: the forum also launched the China-ASEAN Joint Innovation Action for AI Meteorological Model Application. The mission? Co-create next-gen AI weather models to boost forecast accuracy for severe events. The plan zeroes in on:
- Joint innovation
- Data integration
- Talent cultivation
- A shared “China-ASEAN Meteorological Home” platform
Under the theme “Digital Intelligence Empowers Meteorological Cooperation,” officials from the Chinese mainland, ASEAN members, and the World Meteorological Organization rallied behind the UN’s “Early Warnings for All” initiative. The result? Smarter, faster, and more inclusive weather alerts for everyone. 🚀
For young pros and climate buffs across South and Southeast Asia, this is a game-changer. Get ready for sharper forecasts, stronger climate action, and more collaborative tech vibes! 🌟
