Princeton Research Computing: As Science and Software Intersect, Global-Warming Simulations Reach Satellite Accuracy
The amount of data encompassed by the global climate in its entirety, from its winds and temperature conditions to shifting formations of cloud, is almost unimaginably complex. Layer in the ever-evolving small- and large-scale interactions involved, and the thought of creating a model of the entire Earth system seems beyond possibility. That is, until recent HPC-powered simulations reached a level of accuracy in many ways “indistinguishable from nature.” This image shows the cloud field from a global simulation of the […]
