AI‐Based Regional Emulation for Kilometer‐Scale Dynamical Downscaling

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract An AI‐based Limited‐Area Model (LAM) is developed for dynamical downscaling over the Southern Great Plains and the southeastern United States, with strong generalization abilities under diverse boundary conditions. The model is trained using 0.25° ${}^{\circ}$, 3‐hourly ERA5 as forcings and CONUS404 as targets in 1980–2019, producing 4‐km ...
