SUMMARY:Opportunities and Challenges for Digital Twins of the Earth System
DESCRIPTION:Minisymposium\n\nNils Wedi (ECMWF)\n\nThe talk describes ongoi
 ng efforts to create digital replicas of the Earth as part of the European
  Commission's Destination Earth programme. Global, so-called "k-scale" sim
 ulations are the basis of building digital information systems that stream
  and translate complex weather & climate data for integration with impact 
 sector and decision support tools. Technically, this provides end-to-end p
 athways of data and compute from distributed HPC production sites to end-u
 sers consuming dedicated cloud-native resources to digest and tailor these
  novel streams of information. Digital twins based on physical modelling, 
 combined with novel data-driven deep learning advances offer a window into
  the future, with a promise to significantly increase the timeliness of de
 livery and realism of Earth system information. Despite the significant co
 mpute and data challenges, there is a real prospect to better support glob
 al to local climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts, and compleme
 nt the existing information derived from today's Earth system simulations.
  The initiative encapsulates both the latest science as well as technology
  advances to provide near-real time information on Extremes and climate ch
 ange in a wider digital environment. This is facilitated through complex w
 orkflows and immersive data access akin to a game engine environment provi
 ded by ECMWF's digital twin engine.\n\nDomain: Climate, Weather and Earth
