🌍 Can we build a CLIP-like model for Earth's weather and climate data? EarthAlign: 553K+ meteorology–language pairs spanning 25 years, and MeteoLIP, a model aligning weather data with language. 💻 mbzuai-oryx/EarthAlign t.co

EarthAlign: Learning Language-Aligned Representations of Earth System Data Interpreting Earth system conditions is central to understanding environmental risks and informing decisions across weather- and climate-sensitive sectors. Existing multimodal weather systems primarily target task-specific prediction, generation, or question answering, while general-purpose alignment between Earth system data and language remains underexplored due to the limited availability of diverse language supervision grounded in meteorological conditions. To fill this gap, we introduce EarthAlign, a large-scale dataset with broad geographic coverage spanning 2000-2024 that combines 10 expert-curated natural event and disaster data sources with climatology-derived normal-weather samples. Each sample includes temporal and geospatial information and four grounded caption styles aligned with 63-variable ERA5 meteorological data. Building on EarthAlign, we introduce MeteoLIP, a dual-encoder framework for learning aligned meteorology-language representations. MeteoLIP incorporates MetTok, which uses a geolocation- and time-conditioned query to aggregate variable-specific patch embeddings into a compact sequence of meteorology tokens. To comprehensively assess Earth system multimodal representations, we introduce three downstream tasks: cross-modal retrieval, weather-condition classification, and physical variable estimation. Our experiments show that MeteoLIP improves upon the corresponding CLIP and SigLIP baselines across these tasks. Further analyses highlight the importance of meteorological input, temporal and geospatial conditioning, and multi-style supervision for meteorology-language alignment. Thus, EarthAlign and MeteoLIP provide a foundation for learning and evaluating language-aligned representations of Earth system data. Our code, dataset, and weights are publicly available at mbzuai-oryx/EarthAlign.
