I guess this is a video for young people who are thinking about getting a research degree in climate science in their life. My experience bringing up new researchers was that whether a new comer was good at coding for scientific purposes well predict whether they could graduate. Just get to intermediate level Python or NCL plus basic command of Linux OS before becoming a research student. Physics and Mathematics are absolutely critical but you can pick them up during your study. Coding, though... I was lucky i started drinking from hoses a year before i worked as a researcher student.

Yes, we highly recommend picking up coding skill as early on as possible!
