"Science: The Biggest Climate Questions For A New Decade" [10]

"In the past decade, scientists substantially improved their ability to draw connections between climate change and extreme weather events. They made breakthroughs in their understanding of ice sheets. They raised critical questions about the implications of Arctic warming. They honed their predictions about future climate change. As another decade begins, scientists say there are more questions to be answered."

Supercomputers, Models, and 40 Years of World Climate Research [37]

"The world’s ability to adapt to climate change is on the agenda as the venerable international climate research program charts its next decade."

"CHEYENNE, Wyoming — On the western rim of the Great Plains, a futuristic building looks out of place on the treeless range. The NCAR-Wyoming Supercomputing Center is indeed remote, two continents away from the weather forecasts it produces each day for Antarctica and millions of miles from the space weather it tracks.

And yet, it is surprisingly connected to the rapidly evolving story of Earth's changing climate.
