全球变暖下区域气候区预计会发生转移，AI气候模型是否已以符合物理规律的方式学习到变暖下气候区分布的泛化能力，这影响其在气候预测中的适用性。本研究通过对AIMIP第一阶段模型应用柯本-盖格（Köppen-Geiger）气候区分解，在规定的+4K海表温度（SST）强迫下，将其响应与基于物理的AMIP模型进行比较。利用该诊断方法，我们比较了基线分类技能、各气候区的温度、降水和近地面比湿响应，以及与基于物理模型的偏差空间结构。所有被研究的AI模型均在基于物理模型的范围内重现了1979-2014年ERA5气候态，但仅混合物理-AI模型NeuralGCM-HRD能按照已确立的热力学和水文尺度关系重新组织气候区。其余模拟器则存在可追溯至其陆地单元架构处理方式的不同失效模式。因此，对于拟用于气候预测的AI模型，符合物理规律的气候区响应是必要的。
英文摘要
Regional climate zones are expected to shift under global warming. Whether AI climate models have learned to generalize climate-zone distributions under warming in a physically meaningful way affects their suitability for climate projection. We address this question by applying a Köppen-Geiger climate-zone decomposition to AIMIP Phase 1 models under prescribed +4K SST forcing and comparing their responses to physics-based AMIP models. Using this diagnostic, we compare baseline classification skill, per-zone responses in temperature, precipitation, and near-surface specific humidity, and the spatial structure of departures from physics-based models. All AI models considered reproduce the 1979-2014 ERA5 climatology within the physics-based models' range, but only the hybrid physics-AI model NeuralGCM-HRD reorganizes zones in agreement with established thermodynamic and hydrological scaling relations. The remaining emulators have distinct failure modes traceable to their architectural treatment of land cells. A physically consistent climate-zone response is therefore necessary for AI models intended for climate projection.
