Abstract
To fully understand climate change – its causes and consequences – you need a grasp of many different fields of science. Bringing together multiple experts can be hard because researchers are increasingly specialized, don’t understand each other’s jargon, and aren’t encouraged to explore how their knowledge inter-relates. But in climate science, computational models overcome these barriers. Today’s climate models are assembled from many pieces, built by different research groups, each capturing a different aspect of the overall climate system. This isn’t easy – like a jigsaw puzzle where the pieces weren’t designed to fit together. But once the pieces are assembled, the models support a new kind of collaboration. They allow scientists from very different fields to combine their knowledge to answer big questions, and work together on shared experiments. In this chapter, we’ll explore this process of coupling climate models, find out why it’s so challenging, and meet another of our case studies, the Institut Pierre Simon Laplace (IPSL) in Paris, France .

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
