The 2003 Annual Meeting of NCC and Open Lab. for Climate Studies was held in December 2003. Dr. Zheng Guoguang, deputy administrator of CMA, Mr. Zhang Guocai, director-general of NMC made addresses in the opening ceremony. The meeting was chaired by Dr. Dong Wenjie, Dr. Chen Deliang, Dr. Li Weijing and Dr. Luo Yong respectively. The participants were nearly seventy, including NMC staff, graduate students and visiting scientists. Prof. Chao Jiping, academician from NMEFC, Prof. Wu Guoxiong, academician from IAP, were specially invited to deliver reports on the newest progress on the front tasks in the climatological field.
The meeting mainly focused on: 1) sea-air interaction in tropical India Ocean and the Pacific; 2) research progress on climatic dynamics in Tibetan Plateau; 3) Impact of plateau snow on precipitation in East Asian monsoon area; 4) relationship between vegetation and dust storm in North China; 5) climate condition analysis on ten main hydrological valley of China in recent 50 years; 6) relationship between ENSO and atmospheric circulation in southern hemi-sphere and area variation of sea ice in the Antarctic; 7) impact of vegetation features on Asian monsoon rainfalls; 8) impact of tropical circulation system abnormity on rainstorm and flood in Huaihe River valley in 2003; 9) distribution features of soil humidity in China and its inter-annual variation; 10) reconstruction of temperature variation in spring of historical period by adoption of tree ring annual list; 11) establishment of source-sink reversion model methods on two dimensional atmospheric CO2; 12) methodology of climate change calculation.
Dr. Zheng Guoguang expressed his wishes concerning the operational and scientific research work of NCC in 2004 as following: 1) to initiate a new phase of development for NCC by improving the climate prediction capability and short-term climate prediction level; 2) to enhance the construction of scientific research base of the Open Lab. for Climate Studies, that is, to develop key scientific research steadily and continuously, to cultivate high qualified specialist and to carry out broad cooperation throughout China and overseas; 3) to accelerate the course of internationalization and substantiation of BCC in order to become regional climate center of WMO as early as possible.
