Project DestinE Climate DT will deliver the "Climate Change Adaptation Digital Twin", one of the so-called digital twins of the EU-flagship initiative Destination Earth (https://stories.ecmwf.int/destination-earth/index.html)

The core of Climate DT will be a new generation of storm- and eddy-resolving Earth system models, based on two of Europe's leading Earth system simulation models, the development of which is already being driven by the EU Horizon 2020 nextGEMS project (https://nextgems-h2020.eu/):

ICON from a joint venture between the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology (MPI-M), the German Weather Service (DWD), the German Climate Computing Center (DKRZ) and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), and ECMWF's Integrated Forecasting System (IFS), which will be coupled with the ocean model developed by the NEMO consortium and, alternatively, with the Alfred Wegener Institute's ocean model FESOM.
