 for applications like population warnings and energy predictions. However,
  adapting forecasts to diverse hardware poses challenges. MeteoSwiss relie
 s on the ICON model up to a one km resolution, initially ported to GPUs us
 ing OpenACC. While enabling GPU use, OpenACC+Fortran has limitations in po
 rtability and maintenance.\n\nExploring alternatives, we focus on the EXCL
 AIM project, targeting the dynamical core (55% of runtime). Implementing t
 he dynamical core's computational stencils with gt4py Python departs from 
 Fortran traditions. Our work details this shift, emphasizing the productiv
 ity gains with this new Python framework.\n\nWe present optimizations and 
 compare the Python-based dynamical core with the base OpenACC version, hig
 hlighting computational efficiency and development ease. Acknowledging cha
 llenges, especially in operational weather prediction.\n\nSession Chair: I
