Climate models are complex, just like the world they mirror. They simultaneously simulate the interacting, chaotic flow of ...

Fifty years into the project of modeling Earth’s future climate, we still don’t really know what’s coming. Some places are warming with more ferocity than expected. Extreme events are taking ...

Geophysicists at ETH Zurich are using models of the lower mantle to identify areas where earthquake waves behave differently than previously assumed. This indicates the presence of zones of rocks that ...

D heat maps show how deep temperature patterns under Greenland help explain uneven ice loss and land motion, improving future ...

Researchers are critical of the very term, stressing the discrepancy between scientific models and reality / New computer models require new methods for appropriate data analysis and interpretation ...

IBM and the European Space Agency (ESA) today launched TerraMind, a new open-source AI model with an “intuitive” understanding of Earth. According to the research team, the system is the ...

Geophysicists from ETH Zurich and SUSTech, China, have demonstrated the dynamo effect of the Earth’s core in a model in which viscosity has no influence, as is the correct physical regime for the ...
