Researchers working on the Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SM) project have developed an entirely new global atmosphere model. The model has a resolution 30 times finer than global climate ...

In a study published today in Science, researchers say they have solved a climate enigma — the inexplicable surge in global temperature in 2023, rising faster than climate models predicted. By ...

Right now, the world’s best weather forecast model is a General Circulation Model, or GCM, put together by the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. A GCM is in part based on code that ...

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Atmospheric measurements made at Earth’s geographic poles provide a convenient way of validating and calibrating global circulation models. Such measurements also might provide some ...

Physical processes with higher global monsoon simulation skill in CMIP6 than in CMIP5. The green shading represents the difference in local summer precipitation biases between CMIP6 and CMIP5. Global ...

A new study has revealed significant acceleration in the upper-ocean circulation of the equatorial Pacific over the past 30 years. This acceleration is primarily driven by intensified atmospheric ...

Christian Jakob receives funding from the Australian Research Council. At any given time, about two-thirds of Earth’s surface is covered by clouds. Overall, they make the planet much cooler than it ...
