Hidden GEM: Canadian Weather Forecasts to Run on NVIDIA-Powered System

The supercomputer behind Canada’s weather forecasts is getting an upgrade, adopting NVIDIA networking to support long-running, computationally intensive environmental models. Located in Quebec, the system runs a complex forecasting and data assimilation system known as GEM — the Global Environmental Multiscale model. The model processes information about temperature, air pressure and wind to produce both Read article >
