Climate DT: Simulated satellite image for a period of 100-days
The Digital Twin for Climate Change Adaptation (Climate DT) is one of the two high-priority digital twins of Destination Earth. In less than two years, the Climate DT teams have succeeded in building the key elements of the system, deploying it on the EuroHPC LUMI supercomputer, demonstrating its key innovative features at scale, and performing the first-ever global multi-decadal climate change projections at 5 km resolution. This video shows a satellite image of the future: a simulated satellite image for a period of 100-days (1 May to 8 August 2032) derived from one of the prototype projections of the Climate DT with IFS-NEMO (at 4.4km resolution for the atmosphere and land, and 1/12 degree for the ocean and sea-ice), performed on the EuroHPC LUMI supercomputer. Such level of detail obtained now with km scale climate simulations was so far only available from weather prediction models.
