Earth system models (ESMs), used in climate simulations and projections, typically use grids of 50–200 km resolution. These are considered relatively coarse with limited ability to resolve land ...

A critical look at how well climate models work, how to successfully use them, and the anticipated challenges for their ...

A new machine learning model has predicted that there are 44 Earth-like planets in other star systems in the Milky Way galaxy, with researchers from Switzerland claiming that the algorithm at the core ...

The Amazon is the world's largest rainforest. It harbors immense biodiversity and plays a crucial role in the global climate system by storing vast amounts of carbon in its vegetation. The Amazon is ...

High resolution Earth system modeling is increasingly critical for improving model performance and reducing uncertainties. By resolving fine scale processes and interactions across Earth system ...

A simulation of the planet from the DOE Energy Exascale Earth System Model, one of the large-scale models incorporated in the Earth System Grid Federation led by DOE’s Oak Ridge, Argonne and Lawrence ...

Earth is a complex system, with myriad interactions and feedbacks among the atmosphere, hydrosphere, geosphere, cryosphere, and biosphere, as well as the people, institutions, and technologies that ...

Scientists at Yale and in Singapore have devised what may be the ultimate acid test — a comprehensive model for estimating the origins of Earth’s habitability, based in part on ocean acidity. The new ...
