This work was done as part of the Embed2Scale project (@embed2scale.bsky.social) and with Juniper Tyree, @milank.bsky.social, Peter Dueben, @atmbnl.bsky.social, Dorit Hammerling, Allison Baker, Sara Faghih-Naini, and @philipstier.bsky.social !

I'll be at @egu.eu 2025 next week in Vienna. You can catch me on Monday at 14:05 in Room 2.92 talking about "ClimateBenchPress: A Benchmark for Compression of Climate Data". I'll be at EGU the whole week so let me know if you want to chat about (neural) compression for climate or anything else!

I know @avt.im and @mjhutchinson141.bsky.social have worked on this (e.g. arxiv.org/abs/2110.14423) so they might know more!

physics of climate impacts 101:
- Stuff gets hot (worse heatwaves)
- Hot air holds more water vapor (heavier rainfall)
- Hot air is thirstier air (higher drought risk)
- Warm water is hurricane food (stronger storms)
- Hot water expands and hot ice melts (sea level rise)
