Climate science studies the structure and dynamics of Earth's climate system and seeks to understand how climate changes over time.
A multi-modal climate benchmark called ClimateBench-M has been developed by aligning time series climate data, extreme weather events data, and satellite image data.
The benchmark includes a simple but strong generative method that delivers competitive performance in weather forecasting, thunderstorm alerts, and crop segmentation tasks.
The data and code of ClimateBench-M are publicly available on GitHub.
