Scientists in China will use the country's Tianhe-1A supercomputer to forecast and analyze smog in major cities. The Tianhe-1A will be used to create a simulation that will collate data from across more than 100 Chinese cities. Theoretically, this will enable scientists to predict the density of smog, how long it will linger and where it might go next. Last week, Shanghai recorded smog levels 20 times higher than the maximum for safe air. It is not clear whether or not that had anything to do with enlisting Tianhe-1A, but it is clear that China's air needs help.Chinese Supercomputer Gets a Job Forecasting Smog
