This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $337,147 to the University of Washington to research the limits of atmospheric predictability using deep learning frameworks. The project aims to test the widely-held belief that weather forecasting skill is inherently limited to about two weeks, by using machine learning tools to minimize long-range forecast errors and potentially extend the limit of predictability to 3-4 weeks or longer. The research will leverage two forecast models, GraphCast and NeuralGCM, and two weather reanalysis datasets, ERA5 and MERRA2, to explore this hypothesis. The award period runs from August 15, 2025 to July 31, 2027.
