  • Why AI weather models fail climate emulation
    2026/05/26
    A look at the growing body of work questioning where AI weather and climate models fall short, and why physics-based simulation remains essential. Papers discussed: Zhang et al.

  • AI fixes climate model blind spots
    2026/04/28
    Climate simulations, at all grid resolutions, rely on approximations that encapsulate the forcing due to unresolved processes on resolved variables, known as parameterizations. Parameterizations often lead to inaccuracies in climate models, with significant biases in the physics of key climate phenomena. Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) are now directly enabling the learning of unresolved processes from data to improve the physics of climate simulations. This research introduces a flexible framework for developing and implementing physics- and scale-aware machine learning parameterizations within climate models, focusing on the ocean and sea-ice components of a state-of-the-art climate model by implementing a spectrum of data-driven parameterizations, ranging from complex deep learning models to more interpretable equation-based models. The results showcase the viability of AI-driven parameterizations in operational models, advancing the capabilities of a new generation of hybrid simulations, and include prototypes of fully coupled atmosphere-ocean-sea-ice hybrid simulations. The tools developed are open source, accessible, and available to all. Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2510.22676

  • AI fixes systematic climate model bias
    2025/04/05
    Coarse resolution, imperfect parameterizations, and uncertain initial states and forcings limit Earth-system model (ESM) predictions. Traditional bias correction via data assimilation improves constrained simulations but offers limited benefit once models run freely. This research introduces an operator-learning framework that maps instantaneous model states to bias-correction tendencies and applies them online during integration. Building on a U-Net backbone, two operator architectures—Inception U-Net (IUNet) and a multi-scale network (M&M)—combine diverse upsampling and receptive fields to capture multiscale nonlinear features under Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SM) runtime constraints. Trained on two years of E3SM simulations nudged toward ERA5 reanalysis, the operators generalize across height levels and seasons. Both architectures outperform standard U-Net baselines in offline tests, indicating that functional richness rather than parameter count drives performance. In online hybrid E3SM runs, M&M delivers the most consistent bias reductions across variables and vertical levels. The ML-augmented configurations remain stable and computationally feasible in multi-year simulations, providing a practical pathway for scalable hybrid modeling.
