Abstract: Here, we describe Monthly Diffusion at 1.5-degree grid spacing (MD-1.5 version 0.9), a climate emulator that leverages a spherical Fourier neural operator (SFNO)-inspired Conditional Variational Auto-Encoder (CVAE) architecture to model the evolution of low-frequency internal atmospheric variability using latent diffusion. MDv0.9 was designed to forward-step at monthly mean timesteps in a data-sparse regime, using modest computational requirements. This work describes the motivation behind the architecture design, the MDv0.9 training procedure, and initial results.
