ESM2025 - Earth System Models for the Future

The project goal of ESM2025 is to advance the understanding of the Earth system and its response to human activities. We are developing the next generation of European Earth System Models including a more comprehensive representation of the Earth's response to anthropogenic emissions and human land-use change. The improved models will help to enhance the consistency of climate and mitigation-relevant processes across Earth System and Integrated Assessment models and provide valuable scientific insights to support successful implementation of the Paris Agreement. Results from coordinated simulations with the new models will also provide more robust guidance on future global environmental risks, supporting policies targeting adaptation to global change. _____ ESM2025 is funded through the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under the grant agreement number 101003536.
