On the 3rd of March, the newest high performance computer system named Levante at the German Climate Computing Centre (DKRZ) started its operation.
Now, longer simulations can be run with a quadruplicated computing power.
Levante represents a step change in computing,[…], it will allow us to open new frontiers in climate science.
-Prof. Bjorn Stevens
Since the supercomputer is a core tool for this project, the operation of Levante enables simulations for physical processes on small-scale and the refinement of Earth system models down to 2.5km reduces parametrizations.
