Yet,\u0000existing methods have not managed to simultaneously have the properties of high\u0000accuracy, low uncertainty, and high computational efficiency. On one hand, to\u0000quantify the uncertainty in weather predictions, the strategy of ensemble\u0000forecast (i.e., generating a set of diverse predictions) is often employed.\u0000However, traditional ensemble numerical weather prediction (NWP) is\u0000computationally intensive. On the other hand, most existing machine\u0000learning-based weather prediction (MLWP) approaches are efficient and accurate.\u0000Nevertheless, they are deterministic and cannot capture the uncertainty of\u0000weather forecasting. In this work, we propose CoDiCast, a conditional diffusion\u0000model to generate accurate global weather prediction, while achieving\u0000uncertainty quantification with ensemble forecasts and modest computational\u0000cost. The key idea is to simulate a conditional version of the reverse\u0000denoising process in diffusion models, which starts from pure Gaussian noise to\u0000generate realistic weather scenarios for a future time point. Each denoising\u0000step is conditioned on observations from the recent past. Ensemble forecasts\u0000are achieved by repeatedly sampling from stochastic Gaussian noise to represent\u0000uncertainty quantification. CoDiCast is trained on a decade of ERA5 reanalysis\u0000data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF).\u0000Experimental results demonstrate that our approach outperforms several existing\u0000data-driven methods in accuracy. Our conditional diffusion model, CoDiCast, can\u0000generate 3-day global weather forecasts, at 6-hour steps and $5.625^circ$\u0000latitude-longitude resolution, for over 5 variables, in about 12 minutes on a\u0000commodity A100 GPU machine with 80GB memory.

Given this rapid development, the applicability of\u0000these models to operational forecasting has yet to be adequately explored and\u0000documented. To assess their utility for operational tropical cyclone (TC)\u0000forecasting, the NHC verification procedure is used to evaluate seven-day track\u0000and intensity predictions for northern hemisphere TCs from May-November 2023.\u0000Four open-source AIWP models are considered (FourCastNetv1,\u0000FourCastNetv2-small, GraphCast-operational and Pangu-Weather). The AIWP track forecast errors and detection rates are comparable to those\u0000from the best-performing operational forecast models. However, the AIWP\u0000intensity forecast errors are larger than those of even the simplest intensity\u0000forecasts based on climatology and persistence. The AIWP models almost always\u0000reduce the TC intensity, especially within the first 24 h of the forecast,\u0000resulting in a substantial low bias. The contribution of the AIWP models to the NHC model consensus was also\u0000evaluated. The consensus track errors are reduced by up to 11% at the longer\u0000time periods. The five-day NHC official track forecasts have improved by about\u00002% per year since 2001, so this represents more than a five-year gain in\u0000accuracy. Despite substantial negative intensity biases, the AIWP models have a\u0000neutral impact on the intensity consensus. These results show that the current\u0000formulation of the AIWP models have promise for operational TC track forecasts,\u0000but improved bias corrections or model reformulations will be needed for\u0000accurate intensity forecasts.","PeriodicalId":501166,"journal":{"name":"arXiv - PHYS - Atmospheric and Oceanic Physics","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142215367","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, vegetation itself plays a fundamental role in shaping\u0000Earth's climate by regulating the energy, water, and biogeochemical cycles\u0000across terrestrial landscapes. It exerts influence by altering surface\u0000roughness, consuming significant water resources through transpiration and\u0000interception, lowering atmospheric CO2 concentration, and controlling net\u0000radiation and its partitioning into sensible and latent heat fluxes. This\u0000influence propagates through the atmosphere, from microclimate scales to the\u0000entire atmospheric boundary layer, subsequently impacting large-scale\u0000circulation and the global transport of heat and moisture. Understanding the\u0000feedbacks between vegetation and atmosphere across multiple scales is crucial\u0000for predicting the influence of land use and cover changes and for accurately\u0000representing these processes in climate models. This short review aims to\u0000discuss the mechanisms through which vegetation modulates climate across\u0000spatial and temporal scales. Particularly, we evaluate the influence of\u0000vegetation on circulation patterns, precipitation and temperature, both in\u0000terms of trends and extreme events, such as droughts and heatwaves.
