NSF NCAR researcher part of team that wins 2024 ACM Gordon Bell Prize for Climate Modeling

November 22, 2024

The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) has awarded the 2024 ACM Gordon Bell Prize for Climate Modeling to a 12-member team for their project “Boosting Earth System Model Outputs and Saving PetaBytes in Their Storage Using Exascale Climate Emulators.” The award recognizes innovative parallel computing contributions toward solving the global climate crisis. 

Dr. Allison H. Baker of the Computational and Information Systems Lab (CISL) at NSF NCAR is a member of the prize-winning team. 

At last week’s SC24 conference, the team, led by researchers from King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), presented the design and implementation of an exascale climate emulator for addressing the escalating computational and storage requirements of high-resolution Earth System Model simulations. 

For more information on the project, the team, and the ACM Gordon Bell Prize for Climate Modeling, see this press release from the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM).
