Innovation and Exploration with Machine Learning in Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences: Global and Regional Applications

Session ID#: 85463

Session Description:
As machine learning methods mature, many possibilities open in Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences for describing and understanding large data sets. Increasing volumes of data are becoming available that allow novel exploration of complex phenomena. From characterizing global dynamical regimes, improving subgridscale parameterizations and leveraging robotic technology such as drones and remote sensing, machine learning promises innovation. As a tool, machine learning can play a pivotal role as the link between theory, modelling and observational efforts. This session invites submissions that demonstrate progress in understanding both the uses and misuses of machine learning in terms of supervised, unsupervised, and active learning, as well as visual analytics. Submissions are welcomed from regional and global applications to ocean and atmospheric sciences.
