NVIDIA Earth-2 开放模型在欧洲落地天气与气候预测
NVIDIA 博客介绍 Earth-2 开放 AI 天气模型家族在欧洲的应用:新增区域模型 StormScope EU,利用 EUMETSAT 卫星数据每 10 分钟预测 16 个 Meteosat 通道云况;开发者可结合 CorrDiff 做局地降尺度,并通过开源 PhysicsNeMo 框架用自有数据训练。AXA 用 FourCastNet 3 模拟逾 1000 个季节研究区域气旋风险,Vaisala Xweather 将闪电数据融入 StormScope,曼彻斯特大学用 CorrDiff 做英国空气质量建模。
AI推荐理由 NVIDIA 官方博客披露 Earth-2 新增面向欧洲的区域模型 StormScope EU,基于 EUMETSAT 卫星观测以 10 分钟间隔预测 16 个 Meteosat 通道的云况,并给出 AXA、Vaisala Xweather、曼彻斯特大学等具体使用场景;信息密度较高、来源为厂商官方,但属产品宣传,缺少精度基准与独立验证,实际效果仍需外部评估。

Weather forecasts shape more than daily plans; timely weather information is crucial for energy producers, insurers and transport operators to plan around changing conditions. A global forecast can show a storm taking shape, but decisions about solar farms, shipping routes or insured property depend on what happens locally.
NVIDIA Earth-2 gives developers and researchers a family of open AI models and tools they can customize with their own data. Running on NVIDIA computing, these technologies support global weather prediction, detailed regional forecasts and environmental research.

StormScope EU is the latest model to join Earth-2 — a regional version of the StormScope model for short-term forecasting, trained over Europe weather and climate data. It uses EUMETSAT satellite observations to predict evolving cloud conditions across 16 Meteosat channels at 10-minute intervals.
At GTC Berlin, NVIDIA is showcasing a live StormScope EU pipeline in an interactive weather demo built in partnership with Earthmover. The demo uses Earth2Studio to run forecasts and Earthmover’s data platform to manage and serve the real-time results, which are updated as soon as new satellite observations come in, every 10 minutes. Earthmover serves these results as map tiles, letting visitors explore predictions across Europe without downloading entire datasets.
Developers can combine Earth-2 models in workflows tailored to regional needs, using StormScope for short-term forecasting and CorrDiff to add local detail to coarser weather data. Developers can also pick up these model architectures and train them for new environmental applications such as air-quality modeling. The open source NVIDIA PhysicsNeMo framework provides training and customization tools so teams can build applications that incorporate proprietary data and domain expertise to meet regional needs.
Organizations building on Earth-2 capabilities include:
AXA is using NVIDIA Earth-2’s FourCastNet 3 to study regional cyclone risk beyond the historical record across more than 1,000 simulated seasons, generating insights that can inform risk assessments and help customers target prevention efforts.
Vaisala Xweather is combining Earth-2 with its proprietary observations, lightning data and forecasting expertise to enhance its weather intelligence platforms for government, energy, maritime, transportation and insurance customers. Its work includes adapting StormScope with lightning data to advance short-term forecasting lead time and make these warnings accessible through Vaisala Xweather’s software-as-a-service offerings and AI-assistant integrations.

University of Manchester researchers adapted the Earth-2 CorrDiff model for U.K. air-quality modeling. It trained the model on the NVIDIA-powered Isambard-AI supercomputer and ran it locally on NVIDIA DGX Spark systems, bringing environmental modeling from a national supercomputer to the desktop.
TotalEnergies is exploring NVIDIA Earth-2 for solar-energy forecasting, evaluating StormScope-based solar-radiation nowcasts at two photovoltaic sites and developing models to provide weather information at subhourly intervals. The work explores how more detailed forecasts could help anticipate changes in solar-power generation.
Space42 developed SARDiff4Height using CorrDiff and NVIDIA PhysicsNeMo. The research estimates surface heights from a single radar image and produces uncertainty maps, helping analysts understand where estimates need closer scrutiny.
