Short summary
We developed a new method to improve how a leading climate model simulates El Niño, a major driver of global weather extremes. By testing how the model responds to small changes in key atmospheric settings, we identified which processes matter most and adjusted them systematically. This approach makes the model’s behavior closer to observations and shows a promising path for building more reliable climate predictions.
