GCA Framework: A GCC Countries-Grounded Dataset and Agentic Pipeline for Climate Decision Support

arXiv:2604. 12306v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Climate decision-making in the GCC states increasingly demands systems that can translate heterogeneous scientific and policy evidence into actionable guidance, yet general-purpose large language models (LLMs) remain weak both in region-specific climate knowledge and grounded interaction with geospatial and forecasting tools.
