  1. 🌦️ “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.

  2. 🌍 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.
