Better Resolution Might Unlock the Mystery of Storms
Climate models have many persistent and systematic biases, but a new study shows that allowing for a physical rather than statistical representation of energy transport reduces one of them.
A New Approach to Spinning-Up Passive Tracers in Ocean Models
A new computational method enables finding steady-state distributions of tracers in ocean circulation models, opening opportunities for physical and biogeochemical insight.
Examining Aerosol-Cloud-Climate Interactions at a Large Scale
A new numerical setup demonstrates that aerosols could affect clouds, and hence the radiation budget, thousands of kilometers from their location.
Interactive Learning for Better AI-Based Subgrid-Scale Modeling
A study shows that interactive learning can significantly enhance the performance of artificial intelligence-based parameterization of small-scale processes, a critical component of climate models.
To Estimate Plant Water Use, Consider the Xylem
New research shows that chemical isotopes from plant xylem can improve representations of the forest water cycle.
Accurate Ocean Tides for Earth System Models
Accurate tide models require self-attraction and loading terms, but can this calculation be done accurately and efficiently for use in global tide and Earth system models?
Substantial Advance Towards a Global Coastal Carbon Model
First simulations of a new biogeochemistry-circulation coastal grid refinement demonstrate seamless inclusion of small-scale coastal processes in a state-of-the-art Earth system model.
Consistently Closing the Energy Budget in Earth System Models
Researchers review the challenges and prospects of Earth System Models that incorporate a consistent closed energy budget.
A Significant Advancement in Modeling the Global Methane Cycle
The capability to fully model the global methane cycle advances the international climate science community’s ability of providing essential evidence to underpin climate mitigation policy.
