Recently, the basic science center project of the "Climate System Prediction Research Center" of Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology was funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, becoming the first basic science center project to land in Jiangsu.

The Basic Science Center is the most funded project so far that was piloted by the National Natural Science Foundation of China in 2016.
It aims to concentrate and integrate domestic superior scientific research resources, commit to scientific breakthroughs, and produce a batch of internationally leading original results.
Seize the commanding heights of international scientific development and form a number of academic highlands with important international influence.
In 2019, a total of 13 projects across the country received project funding.
The basic science center project of the "Climate System Prediction Research Center" of Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology is led by Academician Wang Huijun, and jointly undertaken by Sun Yat-sen University and other units, with a direct funding of 60 million yuan.
The project focuses on improving the scientific level and accuracy of climate prediction, which will provide important scientific and technological support for China's national defense disaster reduction, ecological civilization construction, and response to climate change, and overall enhance my country's international influence in the field of climate prediction research.
