Manabe Shuro won the Nobel Prize in Physics
visited the National Marine Environment Forecasting Center
October 4th, the results of the 2021 Nobel Prize in Physics announced, Japanese-American scientist Syukuro Manabe is one of the three winners.
Manabe is a recognized pioneer of climate simulation. In the 1960s, Manabe, who worked at the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) of Princeton University, USA, began to develop the first ever climate model. In the 1970s, Manabe estimates that in the 100 years from 1900 to 2000, the global temperature increased by 0.8°C, which is very close to the actual value (0.72°C in the 20th century).
When Manabe used a numerical model to give the quantitative relationship between carbon dioxide and global temperature, global warming had not yet become an environmental issue of widespread concern. It was not until the late 1980s that global warming gradually became an environment that attracted worldwide attention. crisis.
Manabe Shuro visited the forecast center and gave a report
Academician Chao Jiping and Manabe have been friends for many years. In the 1980s, Academician Chao visited the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) of Princeton University in the United States to carry out research work with scientists such as Manabe and achieved a series of far-reaching research results.
Academician Chao Jiping made a speech at the "Symposium on Ocean and Climate Change Strategy"
In 2009, Manabe paid a special visit to our center at the invitation of Academician Chao Jiping and gave a report on "Southern Oscillation in a Coupled Model, Amplitude&CO2" Sensitivity", Director Yu Fujiang of the Center presided over the report meeting, and Manabe carried out a warm academic exchange with the center's researchers.
Subsequently, Manabe participated in the "Ocean and Climate Change Strategy Seminar" hosted by the former State Oceanic Administration and undertaken by our center. Wang Hong, then former deputy director of the State Oceanic Administration, attended the meeting and delivered a speech. The conference actively discussed the role of the ocean in global climate change, the ocean's response to global warming, and the ocean carbon cycle.
