Abstract

Machine learning (ML)-based parameterizations have been developed for Earth System Models (ESMs) with the goal to better represent subgrid-scale processes or to accelerate computations. ML-based parameterizations within hybrid ESMs have successfully learned subgrid-scale processes from short high-resolution simulations. However, most studies used a particular ML method to parameterize the subgrid tendencies or fluxes originating from the compound effect of various small-scale processes (e.g., radiation, convection, gravity waves) in mostly idealized settings or from superparameterizations. Here, we use a filtering technique to explicitly separate convection from these processes in simulations with the Icosahedral Non-hydrostatic modeling framework (ICON) in a realistic setting and benchmark various ML algorithms against each other offline. We discover that an unablated U-Net, while showing the best offline performance, learns reverse causal relations between convective precipitation and subgrid fluxes. While we were able to connect the learned relations of the U-Net to physical processes this was not possible for the non-deep learning-based Gradient Boosted Trees. The ML algorithms are then coupled online to the host ICON model. Our best online performing model, an ablated U-Net excluding precipitating tracer species, indicates higher agreement for simulated precipitation extremes and mean with the high-resolution simulation compared to the traditional scheme. However, a smoothing bias is introduced both in water vapor path and mean precipitation. Online, the ablated U-Net significantly improves stability compared to the non-ablated U-Net and runs stable for the full simulation period of 180 days. Our results hint to the potential to significantly reduce systematic errors with hybrid ESMs.

基于机器学习的可解释多尺度对流参数化 ICON
为地球系统模型(ESM)开发了基于机器学习(ML)的参数化,目的是更好地表示子网格尺度过程或加速计算。混合 ESM 中基于 ML 的参数化已经成功地从短时高分辨率模拟中学习到了子网格尺度过程。然而,大多数研究使用特定的 ML 方法来参数化源自各种小尺度过程(如辐射、对流、重力波)复合效应的子网格趋势或通量,这些过程大多是理想化设置或超参数化。在这里,我们使用一种过滤技术,在二十面体非流体静力学建模框架(ICON)的模拟中,将对流从这些过程中明确分离出来,并对各种 ML 算法进行离线对比。我们发现,未钝化的 U-Net 虽然显示出最佳离线性能,但却能反向学习对流降水与子网格通量之间的因果关系。虽然我们能够将 U-Net 学习到的关系与物理过程联系起来,但这对于基于非深度学习的梯度提升树来说是不可能的。然后将 ML 算法与主机 ICON 模型进行在线耦合。与传统方案相比,我们的在线性能最佳模型--不包括降水示踪物种的消融 U-Net 表明,模拟的降水极值和平均值与高分辨率模拟的一致性更高。不过,水汽路径和平均降水量都出现了平滑偏差。与未消融的 U-Net 相比,在线消融的 U-Net 显著提高了稳定性,并在 180 天的整个模拟期内稳定运行。我们的研究结果表明,混合 ESM 有可能显著减少系统误差。
