A Generative Framework for Probabilistic, Spatiotemporally Coherent Downscaling of Climate Simulation by Jonathan Schmidt, Luca Schmidt, Felix M. Strnad, Nicole Ludwig, Philipp Hennig

“…However, to preserve physical properties, estimating spatio-temporally coherent high-resolution weather dynamics for multiple variables across long time horizons is crucial. We present a novel generative framework that uses a score-based diffusion model trained on high-resolution reanalysis data to capture the statistical properties of local weather dynamics. …”
