Towards European-scale convection-resolving climate simulations with GPUs: a study with COSMO 4.19

The representation of moist convection in climate models represents a major challenge, due to the small scales involved. Using horizontal grid spacings of <i>O</i>(1km), convection-resolving weather and climate models allows one to explicitly resolve deep convection. However, due to thei...
