nextGEMS is a collaborative European project. Funded by the EU’s Horizon 2020 programme, it will tap expertise from fourteen European Nations to develop two next generation (storm-resolving) Earth-system
In the first phase of the nextGEMS project, the two Earth-system models ICON (Version ee0ee6) and IFS (Cycle 47r3.3 nextGEMS) are developed in three iterative cycles aiming at simulating the climate 30
Within the nextGEMS project the ICON model was run at 5km horizontal resolution for about 2 years. Details on the model configuration and it's previous development within the project can be found at https://easy.gems.dkrz.de/DYAMOND/NextGEMS/index.html#id1.
Within the nextGEMS project the IFS model was run at about 4km horizontal resolution for about 1 year coupled to the ocean model FESOM. Details on the model configuration and it's previous development
