Abstract

nClimate modeling helps to predict the future of climate variations and human interference with environment. The traditional General Circulation Models (GCMs) are based on physics-derived mathematical equations but are very expensive in terms of computation. There are alternative ways to perform climate modeling in recent years with the rise and improvement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) based approaches in term of predictability, efficiency, and classification of extreme events compared to conventional. In this study, AI Models like XGBoost, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks and hybrid AI-physics models are assessed over GCM. Results show that AI models significantly decrease prediction errors by about 30%, with hybrid AI-physics models having the lower MAE and higher F1 score for extreme event classification. In addition, the AI models have improved computational power by 40% less time for processing and less energy consumption. These results highlight the possibility that AI based approaches can be highly effective for enhancing climate prediction accuracy, risk assessment, and informing policies.nn
