  • The presently accepted explanation for why the northeastern reaches of Asia and North America are far colder than western areas at similar latitudes relies on orographic controls of weather systems and the movement of prevailing atmospheric circulation over warm ocean currents. Here it is shown that oceans are indeed an important underlying cause, but via a different mechanism: the generation of strong atmospheric waves leading to anomalous cold over eastern continental boundaries.

  • Earth system models often categorize plants to just a few functional types, and plant characteristics are defined per type, neglecting their diversity. The authors show how the use of plant traits can improve the modeling of global carbon, water, and energy fluxes

  • Stratocumulus cloud decks—which cool the Earth’s surface by shading it from sunlight, and are prevalent in the subtropics—break up into scattered clouds when CO2 levels rise above 1,200 ppm in large-eddy simulations that explicitly resolve cloud dynamics.

  • Monsoons are often viewed as planetary-scale sea-breeze circulations, caused by contrasts in the thermal properties between oceans and land surfaces. Numerical simulations suggest that instead feedbacks between large-scale extratropical eddies and the tropical atmospheric overturning circulation are essential for the development of monsoons.

  • There are contrasting views on how to produce the accurate predictions that are needed to guide climate change adaptation. Here, we argue for harnessing artificial intelligence, building on domain-specific knowledge and generating ensembles of moderately high-resolution (10–50 km) climate simulations as anchors for detailed hazard models.

  • How clouds respond to warming remains the greatest source of uncertainty in climate projections. Improved computational and observational tools can reduce this uncertainty. Here we discuss the need for research focusing on high-resolution atmosphere models and the representation of clouds and turbulence within them.

  • The intertropical convergence zone, where global rainfall is greatest, is a narrow belt of clouds usually centred about six degrees north of the Equator; this Review links its migrations on various timescales to the atmospheric energy balance.
