This image is astonishing for both the message it communicates and for its sci comm value. Incredible work by team Copernicus EU It shows global ocean temps for each year since 1940. The alarming, yet brilliant part is the pink shading which highlights the 2023-2024 jump 1/
This is live! Please tune in to this event with Executive Vice-President Margrethe Vestager now talking #DestinationEarth youtube.com/live/2gULcd_9y…

🌍🌐 Today we celebrated a major milestone in #DestinE at the LUMI supercomputer EuroHPC supercomputer center in Finland with @Vestager. The launch kicked off the second phase of DestinE, the ambitious initiative to create a digital replica of our planet. ➡️ destine.ecmwf.int/news/destinati…
Blame Dr. Mathew Barlow for inspiring this cursed video 🥸 #python #ducks #ScienceVisualization
In Christian Lessig 's words, a well-trained weather forecasting model that has learned the behavior of the Earth system can make a big difference for a range of applications. Such general model can potentially give better results than a smaller model just trained for downscaling
Tantilizing new work led by Nikolay Koldunov. It shows that using a well-trained weather forecasting model--which has learned the general dynamics and behaviour of the Earth system!--can make a big difference for a wide range of application, in our case climate downscaling.
Thomas Rackow 🧊 Christian Lessig I really believe this is the way & the 2 approaches have merits: 1️⃣ An IPCC trained downscaling (+bias-correct) using #AI has merits of using a large amount of existing readily available data. 2️⃣ A well trained #AIFS (foundation?) model natively at Km-scale is so cool 😎👍
Still proud to be part of this fantastic project, a flagship initiative of the European Commission #DestinationEarth
