Supercomputer Upgrades for Work on Climate Change and Renewable Energy

If I had a supercomputer with 1,645 teraflops of processing power and over 360 terabytes of memory, I'd make a few cycles available to scientists working on climate modeling and renewable energy.

"According to NCCS, key projects that will benefit from the Jaguar upgrade include, the Climate Change Initiative, which “aims to accelerate discoveries about Earth’s climate system through lab-wide engagement of scientists and engineers from diverse directorates encompassing energy, environment, computing, and national security” and ‘Tap it and Trap it,’ a project aimed at separating Carbon Dioxide from power plant emissions and pumping it deep underground."
