Joint Research on Climatic Changes Between the United
States and the People's Republic of China - The United States Department
of Energy and the People's Republic of China Academy of Sciences signed
an agreement on August 19, 1987 to carry out a joint research program to
study possible global warming due to the enhanced greenhouse effect. The
Department and the China Meteorological Administration signed in February
1997 an agreement to conduct joint research on regional climate change.
The continuing joint studies include opportunities for scientists in both
countries to share climate information, leading to an improved understanding
of the Earth's climate system and to reliable climate prediction based on
the use of general circulation models (GCMs). The linked
slide show displays recent progress. |
