International cooperation with Latin America through atmospheric global model of MRI

This project focuses on international cooperation between Japanese and Latin American research institutes to evaluate climate change in Latin American countries using atmospheric global modeling. Scientists from Latin American countries stay at the Meteorological Research Institute (MRI) in Japan to conduct cooperative research and evaluate climate change impacts. This project is supported by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and the World Bank.
