The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI), which is working on climate change issues, has acquired supercomputer from Wipro to enhance understanding of climate variability and climate change at different spatial and temporal scales.

"Climate modeling at TERI envisions addressing key environmental challenges from global to local levels, by providing plausible scientific knowledge on climate change issues," TERI Director General R K Pachauri in a statement.

Wipro's supercomputer will help in fine-tuning the complexities attached in predicting the climate patterns so that they can be used for climate change projections and regional impact assessment studies, Pachauri said.
