Curated list of large weather models for AI Earth science

Family of operational-quality open weather models from DeepMind and Google Research, including WeatherNext Graph (deterministic GNN medium-range forecasting, published as GraphCast), WeatherNext Gen (diffusion ensemble, published as GenCast), WeatherNext 2 (state-of-the-art global medium-range and cyclone forecasting skillful beyond 15 days, operational at 0.25° resolution), and WeatherNext Cyclones (breakthrough tropical cyclone track forecasting, Nature 2026); official code and open weights (Apache 2.0, 7.6K+ stars)

Google DeepMind's diffusion-based ensemble weather forecasting model at 0.25° resolution, outperforming ECMWF ENS on 97.2% of targets up to 15 days ahead, with open-source code and weights (Nature 2024)

World's first fully open, accelerated weather AI software stack with Medium Range forecasting and Nowcasting models using generative AI (January 2026)

First scientific ML benchmark with paired real-world measurements and matched numerical simulations for complex physical systems, featuring 5 scenarios, 700+ trajectories, 10 baseline models, and 9 evaluation metrics with HuggingFace datasets and model checkpoints (Westlake University, CC BY-NC 4.0)

Open-source, local-first, model-agnostic AI research workbench for reproducible scientific discovery; runs Python/R notebooks, searches the web, calls scientific data connectors, and produces inspectable reports, tables, and figures in a self-hosted desktop workspace (1.5K+ stars, Apache 2.0, 2026)
