Leveraging deterministic weather forecasts for in-situ probabilistic temperature predictions via deep learning

David Landry, Anastase Charantonis, Claire Monteleoni

We propose a neural network approach to produce probabilistic weather forecasts from a deterministic numerical weather prediction. Our approach is applied to operational surface te…

Semi-automatic tuning of coupled climate models with multiple intrinsic timescales: lessons learned from the Lorenz96 model

Redouane Lguensat, Julie Deshayes, Homer Durand +1

The objective of this study is to evaluate the potential for History Matching (HM) to tune a climate system with multi-scale dynamics. By considering a toy climate model, namely, t…

Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Bayesian Neural Networks: Towards trustworthy predictions of ocean dynamics

Mariana C. A. Clare, Maike Sonnewald, Redouane Lguensat +2

The trustworthiness of neural networks is often challenged because they lack the ability to express uncertainty and explain their skill. This can be problematic given the increasin…

Acute sensitivity of global ocean circulation and heat content to eddy energy dissipation time-scale

Julian Mak, David P. Marshall, Gurvan Madec +1

The global ocean overturning circulation, critically dependent on the global density stratification, plays a central role in regulating climate evolution. While it is well-known th…

Are General Circulation Models obsolete?

V. Balaji, Fleur Couvreux, Julie Deshayes +3

Traditional general circulation models, or GCMs -- i.e. 3D dynamical models with unresolved terms represented in equations with tunable parameters -- have been a mainstay of climat…

Bridging observation, theory and numerical simulation of the ocean using Machine Learning

Maike Sonnewald, Redouane Lguensat, Daniel C. Jones +3

Progress within physical oceanography has been concurrent with the increasing sophistication of tools available for its study. The incorporation of machine learning (ML) techniques…

Symmetric and antisymmetric components of polar-amplified warming

Spencer A. Hill, Natalie J. Burls, Alexey Fedorov +1

CO-forced surface warming in general circulation models (GCMs) is initially polar-amplified in the Arctic but not Antarctic -- a largely hemispherically antisymmetric signal. N…

Impact of climate change on surface stirring and transport in the Mediterranean Sea

Enrico Ser-Giacomi, Gabriel Jorda Sanchez, Javier Soto-Navarro +4

Understanding how climate change will affect oceanic fluid transport is crucial for environmental applications and human activities. However, a synoptic characterization of the inf…

Crossroads of the mesoscale circulation

Alberto Baudena, Enrico Ser-Giacomi, Cristobal Lopez +2

Quantifying the mechanisms of tracer dispersion in the ocean remains a central question in oceanography, for problems ranging from nutrient delivery to phytoplankton, to the early…

Can We Reconstruct Mean and Eddy Fluxes from Argo Floats?

Christopher C. Chapman, Jean-Baptiste Sallée

The capacity of deep velocity estimates provided by the Argo float network to reconstruct both mean and eddying quantities, such as the heat flux, is addressed using an idealized e…

Reconstruction of Sub-Surface Velocities from Satellite Observations Using Iterative Self-Organizing Maps

Christopher Chapman, Anastase Alexandre Charantonis

In this letter a new method based on modified self-organizing maps is presented for the reconstruction of deep ocean current velocities from surface information provided by satelli…

Earth's Energy Imbalance and Implications

James Hansen, Makiko Sato, Pushker Kharecha +1

Improving observations of ocean heat content show that Earth is absorbing more energy from the sun than it is radiating to space as heat, even during the recent solar minimum. The…
