The National Meteorological Science and Technology Conference opened in Beijing today.

This is the first national science and technology conference held by the meteorological industry in the new century. It is a mobilization meeting to fully implement the scientific outlook on development, strengthen independent innovation, and build an innovative industry. It will surely become another milestone in the history of the development of meteorological science and technology in my country.

Entering the 21st century, under the guidance and promotion of science and technology, mankind is experiencing the evolution from an industrial society to a knowledge society.

The new economic growth points created by science and technology are playing an increasingly important role in solving a series of major issues of sustainable social development, and have become an important driving force for economic and social development and a main source of wealth.

The first 20 years of this century are an important period of strategic opportunities for my country’s economic and social development, as well as for the development of meteorological science and technology.

Building a resource-saving and environment-friendly society and improving international competitiveness and risk resistance are arduous tasks and severe challenges faced by our country and meteorological science and technology workers.

Only by seizing the fleeting and rare opportunity of the scientific and technological revolution and significantly improving the strength of meteorological science and technology, especially the ability of independent innovation, can we achieve faster and better development.

Today, we stand at the beginning of the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" and look back on the past five years. The progress of the meteorological industry is still exciting.

"Strategy" Promotes Development The "Tenth Five-Year Plan" is a critical period for the development of China's meteorological undertakings. This "key" is first and prominently reflected in the exploration, condensation and improvement of the overall strategy, which has laid the foundation for the development of meteorological undertakings and science and technology during the "Tenth Five-Year Plan".

Wonderful overture and sonata.

During this period, the China Meteorological Administration, guided by the Scientific Outlook on Development, first proposed three major strategies: "expanding fields, revitalizing meteorology through science and technology, and strengthening the situation through talent", which effectively promoted the development of the cause, and then started the largest-scale meteorological development project in the history of China in 2004.

A strategic research work lasted for more than a year and achieved significant research results.

Why conduct such a large-scale strategic study?

The answer is clear, it is "development".

Because with the continuous advancement of meteorological science and technology, the world's understanding of weather has expanded to the five major circles of the climate system and their interactions. Meteorological services have expanded from traditional weather forecasting to climate prediction, climate change prediction, and atmospheric composition monitoring.

and analysis, meteorological undertakings have penetrated into all aspects of politics, economy, society, national security, environmental diplomacy and sustainable development and are playing an increasingly important role.

Therefore, from the perspective of national interests and the development of China's meteorological undertakings, we need to unify the planning of China's meteorological undertakings and further understand the true connotation of meteorological undertakings; from the perspective of building a well-off society in an all-round way and establishing and implementing the scientific outlook on development, re-examine the economy

Social development requires meteorology; standing at the forefront of world science and technology development and at the level of economic and technological globalization, determining the strategic goals and main tasks for the development of China's meteorological undertakings in the next 20 years has become an urgent and realistic task, and has become a strategic research

motivation.

The strategic research results are closely connected with national strategies such as the National Medium and Long-term Science and Technology Development Plan, which proposes “adhering to the development direction of public meteorology, vigorously improving the ability of meteorological information to guarantee national security, and vigorously improving meteorological resources as a viable

The strategic thinking of "supporting capacity for sustainable development" and the development concept of "public weather, safety weather and resource weather" show the grand pattern of "big weather".

At the beginning of the new year, the State Council issued "Several Opinions on Further Accelerating the Development of Meteorological Undertakings" (hereinafter referred to as "State Council Document No. 3"), which further clarified the strategic positioning of China's meteorological undertakings as a "scientific and technological, basic social welfare undertaking" and emphasized that

It has demonstrated the fundamental role of meteorological undertakings in national security and social progress, its realistic role in economic and social development, and its forward-looking role in sustainable development.

This is a summary and sublimation of strategic research results, and it also puts forward higher requirements for the reform, innovation and development of China's meteorological undertakings.

It is these grand strategies based on development that drive and guide the meteorological cause in the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" to make the progress of the meteorological cause more solid and the direction clearer.

At present, meteorological departments across the country are implementing the State Council Document No. 3 and the spirit of the National Science and Technology Conference. A new round of meteorological business and technical system reform is being fully launched. Following the march of the development of the meteorological industry during the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan", the strategic improvement command has become more and more exciting.

and throbbing harmonies.

"Tenth Five-Year Plan" Creates Brilliance In the glorious movement of the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" meteorological cause, we can find countless jumping notes. Along their surging connotations, we can feel the inspiring inner drive and vigorous vitality.

Understand the grand theme of the symphony of meteorological undertakings.

Keyword 1: Development is an eternal theme - During the "Tenth Five-Year Plan" period, my country's meteorological development has made remarkable achievements. The team of meteorological science and technology talents has continued to grow, scientific and technological achievements have continued to emerge, scientific and technological system reform and research-oriented business The construction has achieved preliminary results, the construction of the basic scientific and technological conditions platform has made significant progress, and international cooperation in the field of meteorological science and technology has become increasingly active.

More and more Chinese scientists serve as members of some important international meteorological academic organizations and editorial boards of international publications.

Mr. Ye Duzheng won the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) "International Meteorological Organization Award" in 2003 and the country's highest science and technology award in 2005.
