Years of the Maritime Continent



Details

  • Alternative Title:
    Years of the Maritime Continent (YMC) is a multiyear international program with participants from over 15 countries. Its overarching goal is to expedite the progress toward improving understanding and prediction of the local oceanic and atmospheric multiscale variability of the Indo-Pacific Maritime Continent (MC) and its global impacts. YMC is motivated by the unique role of the MC in both the local and global weather climate systems, our lack of understanding of the key processes governing this role, and persistent systematic biases and errors in numerical model output for the region. YMC builds a comprehensive observational data set of the MC weather climate system, encourages observation-modeling integration, and educates the next generation of scientists who will be the core workforce and leaders to further advance the study of the MC.
