The Ministry of Science and Technology has decided to import super computers to improve weather forecasts in the country.
HYDERABAD: Do you know that cave deposits provide vital information on how the Southwest Monsoon behaved several thousand years ago? That is what was found out by scientists from the National Geophysical Research Institute (NGRI) by studying oxygen isotopes of the white or light brownish structures (stalagmites) found in different shapes and sizes in caves.
<p>Under the project 'Seasonal Prediction of the Indian Monsoon' (SPIM), the prediction of Indian summer monsoon rainfall by five atmospheric general circulation models (AGCMs) during 1985-2004 was assessed. The project was a collaborative effort of the coordinators and scientists from the different modelling groups across the country. </p>
<p>A state of the art model of the coupled ocean-atmosphere system, the climate forecast system (CFS), from the National Centres for Environmental Prediction (NCEP), USA, has been ported onto the PARAM Padma parallel computing system at the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (CDAC), Bangalore and retrospective predictions for the summer monsoon (June-September) season of 2009 have
The WASP-12b is so close to its Sun-like star that it is superheated to 2,300
Last year, 2010, was India's hottest in 110 years, and 2001-2010 the warmest decade. With a mean temperature increase of 0.93 degrees Celsius, 2010 beat 2009 (mean increase 0.91 degrees) to the "hottest honour". Yes, it's global warming. "There has been a steady rise in temperatures since the 1990s and it is only rising...
