Resolved tropical cyclones trigger CO2 uptake and phytoplankton bloom in an Earth system model simulation

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, volume 122, number 50, December 2025.
ImportanceEarth system models typically operate with a spatial resolution of 100 to 200 km. This is too coarse for the representation of small-scale mechanisms and extreme events, such as intense tropical cyclones (e.g. hurricanes). We present a km scale…
