Transition to a low-carbon economy:

The first African-based Earth system model

The challenge:

• Climate change continues to cause significant changes

to our environment

• African climate issues differ from those elsewhere, and

yet research efforts to address it, is disproportionately

concentrated in the northern hemisphere

Research and development:

• Use expertise in global change, high-performance

computing and modelling to simulate climate change in

Africa

• Focuses on: Simulation of short intense rainfall over

Africa, aerosol-climate feedback, land-surface

modelling, ocean-atmosphere feedbacks,

Southern Ocean biochemistry
