The realization that predictive climate research could be transformed by networked compute and data resources led to a breathtaking variety of research institutes in California. The next step is to accelerate this transformation by coordinating the institutes themselves so that they can each act as force multipliers for one another and for atmospheric, ocean, and climate research as a whole. That is the purpose of UC San Diego’s GAIA Initiative.

As society becomes more reliant on large-scale supercomputing centers for compute and storage, the costs associated with them have become a topic of discussion. One innovative hypercluster model—a distributed one—provides an alternative approach.
