🌍 Experience the Hamburg node at the WCRP Global KM-Scale Hackathon 2025 🎥
🗓️ In May, over 600 scientists and researchers joined forces across 10 global locations to take part in the first-ever global climate modelling #hackathon, organized by the World Climate Research Programme and supported by initiatives like WarmWorld, EERIE I European Eddy-Rich Earth System Models, Destination Earth, ESMO, and #nextGEMS.
🇩🇪 One of the largest nodes was hosted by the @MPI_Meteo in Hamburg📍 , where more than 120 participants from around the world came together. They spent a week collaborating with local science teams, exploring cutting-edge research, and working with data from the latest
#ICON and #IFS–FESOM model runs.
🌐 From Europe to Southeast Asia, Australia, and the Americas, this was a truly global effort to advance kilometer-scale #ClimateModelling.
🎬 Curious to see what it was like? We’ve captured the energy and collaboration of the Hamburg node in a short video. Come take a look!

🌪️ ☀️ Storms & Radiation began with a major challenge: the energy budget in our climate models was out of balance. Has that problem been solved?
✅ Yes! In recent model development cycles, researchers identified and fixed the energy leaks. However, there’s more progress to highlight:
☁️ Thanks to higher-resolution models, we can now simulate #clouds more realistically. This has revealed that convective cloud organization plays a significant role in the Earth’s energy budget.
🌬️ An aerosol and dust scheme has been integrated into one of the models, enabling us to study climate effects from pre-industrial times to the present.
🌧️ Studies of extreme precipitation confirm that such events increase by 7% per degree of warming, in line with theoretical predictions.
🔬 Increasing model resolution brings simulations closer to physical theory.
These findings enhance our understanding of the Earth system and improve the reliability of #ClimateModels for future planning.

🚨 Video alert! Our latest multimedia piece is out and we are excited to share it with you ▶️
🔎 What is this video about?: The visualizations in this video provide a colorful and creative representation of our modelling endeavors. Additionally, the captivating images demonstrate the playful fluctuations of various components of our Earth system, including clouds, aerosols, thermal radiation, and temperature, over the course of the present and future years — specifically between 2021 and 2030.
📽️ Video creation: This illustrative work has been produced with the Earth System models used by #nextGEMS: ICON and IFS-FESOM. #ICON is a model was developed by the @MPI_Meteo and the German Climate Computing Center, while hashtag#IFS-FESOM developed by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts.

Fantastic momentum at #EGU25! Teams from two #HorizonEU projects came together for a Splinter Meeting to explore synergies and plan future collaboration.
Next steps? We're aiming for a joint hackathon and an ECR meeting to build stronger connections and drive innovation across projects. Stay tuned—exciting things ahead!

🏁 Final Day at The Final Countdown!
The last #nextGEMS #hackathon is wrapping up, and our participants are excited to present the results of their hard work over the past few days. 🚀
A highlight of the day? Some truly stunning #visualizations from the hackathon’s plotting challenge! Congrats to Matthias Aengenheyster for his winning #ICON data visualization. 🎉
What a journey it has been! Thanks to everyone who made this event successful 👏
🌙 After a delicious and revitalizing dinner at Man in the Moon last night, our participants are kicking off the last day of hacking at The Final Countdown! 🚀
The day began with presentations of interim results. Now, the teams are highly focussed on preparing their results before tomorrow's grand finale.

The nextGEMS project has entered its final phase and will come to an end in August (?) of this year. But before going separate ways, our project members and partners gather one last time for the sixth nextGEMS hackathon from March 24th to 28th, …
Day two of #TheFinalCountdown is slowly winding down. 🌙
Today's session included a lot of #coding and #networking for our participants. They also had the chance to listen to Gabriele Messori, who shared his insights into Data-driven forecasts of extreme events and impact #forecasting with a focus on extreme heat events and their impacts on mortality rates across Germany.🔥
Tomorrow, the groups will present their first interim results. Stay tuned!
