A new supercomputer has been unveiled in the UAE to advance weather forecasting and overall climate research.
'Atmosphere' will help the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) easily process complex data, and predict weather patterns faster and more accurately.
The supercomputer, which was built by Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), uses the Cray EX system, an end-to-end high-performance computing (HPC) liquid-cooled platform.
The UAE is the first in the region to deploy the powerful liquid-cooled system for weather prediction.

The NCM uses numerical weather prediction modelling software, such as the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model and Consortium for Small-scale Modelling (COSMO).
They leverage physics and dynamics-based models of the atmosphere and oceans to simulate and predict weather conditions.
With the new supercomputer, which will deliver faster performance than NCM’s existing system, the runtime of simulations on these models will decrease by up to 200 per cent on the WRF and up to 300 per cent on COSMO, significantly speeding time-to-insight on weather predictions.
The UAE, in cooperation with Jordan, has carried out its 55th humanitarian airdrop over the Gaza Strip, marking the second day in a row of airborne aid deliveries under the 'Birds of Goodness' initiative.
The Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs & Port Security (ICP) is urging the public to use only official channels when applying for services related to entry, residency or work in the UAE.
Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has launched the second phase of its project to upgrade waiting areas at key marine transport stations across the city.
A convoy of Emirati humanitarian aid trucks has entered the Gaza Strip via the Rafah border crossing, as part of the UAE’s ongoing 'Operation Chivalrous Knight 3' relief mission.
The UAE has delivered aid airdrop over the Gaza Strip, in coordination with Jordan, after Israel announced new aid corridors and daily halt in military operations in the enclave.
Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, has confirmed that the UAE will "immediately" resume delivery of aid airdrops into Gaza.
