The cloud fraction diurnal variation (CDV) regulates the Earth system’s radiative budget and balance, influencing atmospheric variables such as temperature and humidity, as well as physical processes ...

It’s a complex problem that we face with the climate – and it would take a very powerful computer to be able to really model the Earth System and its future with any granularity. I recently listened ...

Stratocumulus clouds form large carpets in the sky covering approximately 20% of the earth’s surface. They reflect around 40% of the sun’s radiation back into space. The international research team ...

Climate models are essential tools for understanding our planet's future, helping scientists predict global warming patterns, sea level rise, and extreme weather events. These sophisticated computer ...

ACM, the Association for Computing Machinery, today presented a 26-member team with the ACM Gordon Bell Prize for Climate Modeling in recognition of their project "Computing the Full Earth System at 1 ...

For all of us concerned about the climate, 2023 was a grim year. One of the biggest uncertainties in predicting future climate change is the impact of clouds. Michael Allen speaks to the physicists ...

From the deck of an enormous research ship, surrounded by icebergs, Chelsea Bekemeier releases a tethered balloon into the air. She's standing in temperatures well below freezing, stationed deep in ...

It feels like there’s no escaping AI right now, whether you’re trying to type a sentence without being interrupted by a digital “assistant” or struggling to find a new refrigerator that doesn’t ...
