# NeuralGCM+

With multimillion-dollar, three-year funding from Google.org and technical support from Google Research, Ai2 is launching a climate modeling initiative to develop NeuralGCM+, an open-source model. It keeps NeuralGCM's hybrid design, using physical equations for large-scale dynamics and AI for small-scale processes such as cloud formation and rainfall, and couples the atmosphere with the ocean and sea ice to target stable simulations spanning decades. Google Research's earlier NeuralGCM simulated a year of global atmospheric conditions in eight minutes on a single TPU in its atmosphere-only version.
