Pushing the frontiers in climate modelling and analysis with machine learning

V. EyringWilliam D. CollinsPierre GentineLaure Zanna
2024
Nature Climate Change

Climate modelling and analysis are facing new demands to enhance projections and climate information. Here we argue that now is the time to push the frontiers of machine learning beyond… 

Weather and climate predicted accurately — without using a supercomputer

Oliver Watt-Meyer
2024
Nature

A cutting-edge global model of the atmosphere combines machine learning with a numerical model based on the laws of physics. This ‘hybrid’ system accurately predicts the weather — and even shows… 

Climate sensitivity and relative humidity changes in global storm-resolving model simulations of climate change

T. MerlisKai-Yuan ChengIlai GuendelmanStephan Fueglistaler
2024
Science Advances

The climate simulation frontier of a global storm-resolving model (GSRM; or k-scale model because of its kilometer-scale horizontal resolution) is deployed for climate change simulations. The… 

Probabilistic Emulation of a Global Climate Model with Spherical DYffusion

Salva Rühling CachayBrian HennOliver Watt‐MeyerRose Yu
2024
ICML•ML4ESM

Data-driven deep learning models are on the verge of transforming global weather forecasting. It is an open question if this success can extend to climate modeling, where long inference rollouts and… 

The precipitation response to warming and CO2 increase: A comparison of a global storm resolving model and CMIP6 models.

2024
JAMES

We present a machine learning based emulator of a microphysics scheme for condensation and precipitation processes (Zhao-Carr) used operationally in a global atmospheric forecast model (FV3GFS). Our… 

A machine learning parameterization of clouds in a coarse-resolution climate model for unbiased radiation

Brian HennYakelyn R. JaureguiSpencer K. ClarkChristopher S. Bretherton
2024
JAMES

Coarse-grid weather and climate models rely particularly on parameterizations of cloud fields, and coarse-grained cloud fields from a fine-grid reference model are a natural target for a… 

Improving Stratocumulus Cloud Amounts in a 200‐m Resolution Multi‐Scale Modeling Framework Through Tuning of Its Interior Physics

Liran PengP. BlosseyW. HannahM. Pritchard
2024
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems

High‐Resolution Multi‐scale Modeling Frameworks (HR)—global climate models that embed separate, convection‐resolving models with high enough resolution to resolve boundary layer eddies—have exciting… 

Global Precipitation Correction Across a Range of Climates Using CycleGAN

Jeremy McGibbonS. K. ClarkBrian HennS. K. Clark
2024
Geophysical Research Letters

Accurate precipitation simulations for various climate scenarios are critical for understanding and predicting the impacts of climate change. This study employs a Cycle‐generative adversarial… 

Neural Network Parameterization of Subgrid‐Scale Physics From a Realistic Geography Global Storm‐Resolving Simulation

Oliver Watt‐MeyerNoah D. BrenowitzS. K. ClarkChristopher S. Bretherton
2024
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems

Parameterization of subgrid‐scale processes is a major source of uncertainty in global atmospheric model simulations. Global storm‐resolving simulations use a finer grid (less than 5 km) to reduce…
