China Builds World’s First Ocean Microscope LICOMK++: How It Can Revolutionize Climate Research?

China's LICOMK++ ocean modeling system is making waves in climate science. With 1-kilometer resolution, this first-of-its-kind "ocean microscope" simulates ocean behavior in stunning detail, offering sharper forecasts for storms, marine heatwaves, and global climate shifts. Developed amid tech sanctions, it showcases China's innovation and bolsters global efforts in climate prediction, resilience, and sustainability. LICOMK++ might just be the sharpest eye we’ve ever had on Earth’s oceans.
