   Ai2's HiRO-ACEv2 emulates extreme weather at 3 km for a fraction of X-SHiELD's cost

   Ai2 introduced HiRO-ACEv2, the newest update to its High Resolution Output Ai2 Climate Emulator system, which pairs a coarse 100 km ACE model with the HiRO downscaling model that sharpens outputs to 3 km detail. The main change is the new HiROv2, which predicts several high-resolution fields at once instead of only rainfall and, according to Ai2, matches X-SHiELD's high-resolution statistics to within 3% even for events occurring once in a million data points. Ai2 also retrained ACE and says a combined run produced a full year of global 3 km data that closely matches X-SHiELD; however, HiRO only works with the ACE version tuned to X-SHiELD and cannot yet handle other climates such as a warmer future or ERA5.
