Can incorporating AI improve precipitation in global weather and climate models? Yes! In the latest NeuralGCM paper, we show that training on satellite-based precipitation results in significant improvements over traditional atmospheric models: arxiv.org/abs/2412.11973

Neural general circulation models optimized to predict satellite-based precipitation observations

Climate models struggle to accurately simulate precipitation, particularly extremes and the diurnal cycle. Here, we present a hybrid model that is trained directly on satellite-based precipitation obs...
