We often hear about climate model projections for the future, or how climate model simulations have helped scientists explain particular climate phenomena. But how do the models actually work? The Met ...

Building fairness into climate models could reshape who cuts emissions, who pays, and how countries reach the same global climate goals.

Climate scientists are confronting a hard truth: some of the most widely used models are struggling to keep up with the pace and texture of real‑world warming. The physics at their core remains sound, ...

Hybrid climate modeling has emerged as an effective way to reduce the computational costs associated with cloud-resolving models while retaining their accuracy. The approach retains physics-based ...

New UCLA research finds that airborne dust traps about twice as much heat as climate models have estimated, even though dust likely cools the planet overall. The effect of dust retaining heat is equal ...

Much of the public discussion around climate change has focused on how much the Earth will warm over the coming century. But climate change is not limited just to temperature; how precipitation – both ...

A collaborative effort between the universities of Cordoba and Granada improved the spatial resolution of monthly climate data from 22,000 years ago to the year 2100, enabling more localized and ...

Climate models are complex, just like the world they mirror. They simultaneously simulate the interacting, chaotic flow of Earth's atmosphere and oceans, and they run on the world's largest ...

Researchers have devised a new machine learning method to improve large-scale climate model projections and demonstrated that the new tool makes the models more accurate at both the global and ...

Climate change is already shaping our wellbeing. It affects mental health, spreads infectious diseases, disrupts work, damages food supplies and forces families to leave their homes because of ...
