Rescene: stable century-long climate emulation from a frozen weather model

Rescene is a 0.4 M‑parameter wrapper that transforms a frozen 1.5° weather model into a stochastic climate emulator. By anchoring the model to a calendar climatology with a deterministic slow clock and adding a band‑limited AR(1) perturbation tuned to the observed anomaly spectrum, Rescene produces century‑long runs with no detectable drift and realistic variability. A 100‑year, 8‑member experiment shows stable temperature trends, calibrated ensemble spread/skill, and accurate reproduction of day‑to‑day variability and blocking frequency.

Evaluating Skill and Stability of ArchesWeather and ArchesWeatherGen under Multi-Decadal Climate Simulations

arXiv:2605. 29976v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We evaluate the climate simulation capabilities of ArchesWeather and ArchesWeatherGen, two machine learning models originally trained for weather forecasting and evaluated up to a 10-day lead time.

AIFS-SUBS: Extending Data-Driven Forecasting to Sub-Seasonal Timescales

Data-driven models now rival numerical weather prediction in the medium range, but extending them to sub-seasonal lead times raises challenges absent at shorter horizons. Errors accumulate over long autoregressive rollouts, systematic biases grow with lead time, and several years of data must be held out for independent verification, even though machine-learning models otherwise benefit from longer training records.
