| contents | This is the second part of a series of two articles focused on the development and evaluation of the ARP-GEM1 global atmosphere model. The first paper introduced the model's new physics and speedup improvements. In this second part, we evaluate ARP-GEM1 through a set of 30-year prescribed sea-surface-temperature simulations at 55, 25, 12.6, and 6.3 km resolutions. The model demonstrates reliability in representing global climate metrics, comparable to the top-performing CMIP6 models, while maintaining high computational efficiency at all resolutions. These simulations further demonstrate the feasibility of O(10)-km climate simulations, and highlight their added value, particularly for capturing phenomena such as cyclones. Ultimately, these exploratory simulations should be considered an intermediate step toward the development and tuning of even higher-resolution, convection-permitting kilometer-scale configurations. |
