🌍✨ #nextGEMS is coming to an end – but our journey has only just begun.
After four incredible years, the Horizon 2020 Next Generation Earth Modelling Systems project is wrapping up. Together, we set out to make kilometre-scale global #ClimateSimulations a reality — and we did it.
💡 None of this would have been possible without our extraordinary community:
▪️ Scientists from across the globe, pushing the boundaries of climate #modelling.
▪️ Industry and policy stakeholders, helping us connect our science to real-world needs.
▪️ Our organisational team, keeping everything on track.
▪️ LATEST THINKING (lt.org) and all the talented #ScienceCommunicators and visual creators who helped share our story.From Hamburg to Madrid, our #hackathons became so much more than coding sessions — they were spaces to #collaborate, to socialise, to co-create, and to inspire each other.
We are deeply grateful for the friendships made, the knowledge shared, and the breakthroughs achieved. And we’re excited to watch, in the years ahead, how nextGEMS will continue to shape #ClimateScience, #adaptation planning, and the digital twins of the future.
💪 Let’s keep building on this momentum. Let’s keep working together — across disciplines, sectors, and borders — to tackle the challenges of our changing climate.

🧠 How Hackathons Build Better #ClimateResearch Communities – A New #PolicyBrief
Our final #nextGEMS Policy Brief is here—and it brings a fresh perspective: “Building User Communities around Next-Generation Earth System Models.”
While our first brief focused on bridging science and society, this one looks inward: How do we design research projects that foster #collaboration, creativity, and real-world #impact
Drawing on experiences from the series of nextGEMS #hackathons, the brief shows how these spaces:
- Enable peer learning across disciplines and expertise levels
- Spark new scientific collaborations and networks
- Offer #CoCreation formats that build trust and shared ownership of climate model development🏛️ Aimed at the EU’s research and innovation community—especially those who design, fund, or manage large projects—this brief offers practical recommendations:
- Embed collaborative events into project design
- Create intentional structures that support long-term #community-building
- Focus on the societal relevance of scientific outputs from day oneThese insights go beyond nextGEMS: they speak to the future of climate research itself.
📥 Read and download both briefs from the media library now.

🌦️ “The small-scale matters for the large-scale!” - C. Hohenegger
When the Storms & Land group began their #nextGEMS journey, their mission was clear: find out how explicitly resolving #storms and land-surface features at km-scale changes our understanding of #ClimateVariability.
Over the past four years, under the leadership of Cathy Hohenegger (MPI-M), the team explored how precipitation and #temperature patterns over land are shaped by fine-scale features, such as rivers and soil moisture, and how these effects can differ dramatically from coarser #ClimateSimulations.
The results? Surprising, and a reminder that small details can have global consequences.
▶️ Watch the full video, titled "Small-scale resolution reshapes our understanding of land-climate dynamics", in our Media Library (Project outcomes) to hear Cathy explain the discoveries and their significance.

🌍 “What makes #nextGEMS unique is its inclusivity.”
For Dragana Bojovic (BSC), that means more than diversity—it’s about building a space where climate scientists, social scientists, communication experts, early-career researchers, and professors work side-by-side to create knowledge with society, not just for it.
In our new video, “Thriving on collaboration, openness, and the co-creation of knowledge for a better future”, Dragana shares how nextGEMS fostered inclusivity through:
⬛ #Hackathons – from hands-on climate data exploration to society-oriented workshops on themes like the energy transition
⬛ #SocialNetworkAnalysis – studying how collaborations form and evolve during these events
⬛ #Storyline co-creation – bringing ministries, renewable energy reps, and scientists together to design climate-resilient futures
⬛ #ScienceExplainers & #PolicyBriefs – translating research into action
The result? A vibrant, interdisciplinary community that Dragana hopes will thrive well beyond the project’s lifetime.

🌍 Pushing #ClimateModeling to the Next Level
What happens when you run global climate #simulations at the kilometre scale for multiple years
In our latest blog post, we share insights from a landmark #nextGEMS study using ECMWF’s Integrated Forecasting System coupled to high-resolution ocean–sea ice models.
These simulations capture fine-scale processes—from mesoscale #OceanEddies to #UrbanHeat patterns—that coarser models can’t resolve, offering a more realistic picture of our climate system. Along the way, the team tackled key challenges, from water and #EnergyConservation to improving the simulation of #ExtremePrecipitation and polar sea ice leads.
💡 The results point towards more accurate, actionable climate information—but also highlight the huge computational demands of this frontier.

❄️💻Antarctic sea ice is changing fast, but models often miss key details.
The new MetROMS-UHel model improves sea ice and atmospheric data, with better summer sea ice area predictions — though ice near coasts is thinner and more deformed.

🌪️ ☀️ Storms & Radiation began with a major challenge: the energy budget in our climate models was out of balance. Has that problem been solved?
✅ Yes! In recent model development cycles, researchers identified and fixed the energy leaks. However, there’s more progress to highlight:
☁️ Thanks to higher-resolution models, we can now simulate #clouds more realistically. This has revealed that convective cloud organization plays a significant role in the Earth’s energy budget.
🌬️ An aerosol and dust scheme has been integrated into one of the models, enabling us to study climate effects from pre-industrial times to the present.
🌧️ Studies of extreme precipitation confirm that such events increase by 7% per degree of warming, in line with theoretical predictions.
🔬 Increasing model resolution brings simulations closer to physical theory.These findings enhance our understanding of the Earth system and improve the reliability of #ClimateModels for future planning.
