Earth system box models are essential tools for reconstructing long-term climatic and environmental evolution and uncovering ...

After a record fall, when nearly the entire United States experienced drought—unprecedented in US Drought Monitor history—water managers and planners nationwide are nervously hoping for a wet winter, ...

When engineers and planners design roads, bridges and dams, they rely on hydrological models intended to protect ...

Warming temperatures and rising sea levels disrupt operations and damage assets. Companies use private vendors' climate models to predict and mitigate potential losses. However, discrepancies in ...

A study describes a new computer algorithm which can be applied to Earth System Models to drastically reduce the time needed to prepare these in order to make accurate predictions of future climate ...

Climate models can be a million lines of code long and can take months to run on supercomputers. A new algorithm has dramatically shortened that time. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

Climate risks are global, but prediction systems remain nationally siloed. The NCAR breakup shows why weather and climate ...

Droughts in the coming decades could be longer than projected by current climate models, a new study published Wednesday in Nature warns. The international team of scientists examined potential biases ...

Humans have tried to predict the weather for as long as there have been floods and droughts. But in recent years, climate science, advanced computing and satellite imagery have supercharged their ...

Climate models have been the basis for concern about climate change for more than 35 years. The US government, the United Nations, and organizations across the world have used model projections to ...
