CICS was established to leverage the strengths of both NOAA's GFDL and Princeton University in climate research. It has been instrumental in advancing climate science, particularly in areas like climate modeling, prediction, and understanding the broader implications of climate change since its inception<ref>{{cite web |url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooperative_Institute_for_Climate_Science |title=Cooperative Institute for Climate Science - Wikipedia |access-date=January 27, 2025}}</ref>.
