Description

This repository contains the RNN training and evaluation code used in the paper Vertically recurrent neural networks for sub-grid parameterization

 

Three parameterization problems from earlier studies are also included (we have modified the code from these papers to incorporate RNNs): 

  • non-orographic gravity wave drag (Chantry et al. 2021
    • Based on TensorFlow
    • This repository uses the CliMetLab plugin and downloads the data from the European Weather Cloud
  • non-local parameterization (Wang et al. 2022)
    • The new code is based on TensorFlow, so you'll need both PyTorch and TensorFlow to run everything
    • See original paper for data access
  • moist physics (Han et al. 2023, 2020
    • Based on TensorFlow and PyTorch. This one has the most additions, e.g. code to generate a TensorFlow TFRecord dataset from the raw netCDF data archived in the original paper, autoregressive training and experimental model architectures in PyTorch
    • See original paper for data access

Each of the code repos (unpack the tars) have an updated README.
