PRESENTER: Baoqiang (Bao) Xiang, CPAESS Project Scientist III at NOAA Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) Title: An emerging Asian aerosol dipole pattern reshapes the Asian summer monsoon and exacerbates northern hemisphere warming. Baoqiang Xiang is a CPAESS Project Scientist at NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL). His research focuses on numerical model development and large-scale climate variability and predictions. He is currently working on developing the GFDL's next-generation Atmospheric Model AM5 and the GFDL subseasonal-to-seasonal prediction system. Baoqiang Xiang is the 2019 recipient of the WCRP/WWRP International Prize for Model Development. The Cooperative Programs for the Advancement of Earth System Science (CPAESS—pronounced: see-pass) is a UCAR Community Programs (UCP) division at the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR). UCAR manages the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). Our administrative office is located in Boulder, Colorado, USA. CPAESS was created in February 2016, from the merger of two long-established and successful programs: the Joint Office of Science Support (JOSS) and the Visiting Scientist Programs (VSP). CPAESS is providing an extensive portfolio of organization and management services for the broad Earth science community. Our vision and mission complement and mirror the vision and mission of UCAR, including UCP and NCAR. We are collectively working towards the advancement of scientific research for the benefit of society.
