The ICTP Prize is awarded annually to young scientists from developing

Town, South Africa, and the Norwegian Research Center, Bjerkeness Center 
for Climate Research, Bergen, Norway, and *Narendra Ojha* of the 
Physical Research Laboratory, Ahmedabad, India, for their important work 
on diverse aspects of climate change in Africa and Asia.

On that occasion, Rondrotiana Barimalala will give a talk on *"The 
Southern African Rainfall: Modulation of Large-Scale Signals by Regional 
Processes*" while Narendra Ojha will give a talk on *"Modeling of 
atmospheric trace gases and aerosols over the Indian subcontinent*".

An introduction to the 2021 ICTP Prize winners will be delivered by
