AI for Ocean and Climate Change

Session ID#: 162361

Session Description:
World’ health, security, and economic well-being are closely linked to climate and weather. People are looking for information to help them understand climate and make decisions on how to manage climate-related risks and opportunities.

To meet this need, countries are accelerating dissemination of scientific data and information relevant to ocean and climate change science, adaptation, and mitigation. However, climate change is a complex scientific and multifaceted issue, amenable to Machine Learning (ML) and AI analysis, but in general, this has not yet occurred. Many ML algorithms have been available for decades, and possibly most notably neural networks. Until recently, constraints of computational architecture and power have restricted their application, and especially for issues as data-intensive as ocean and climate change. For example we can  identify Gulf Stream rings and mesoscale eddies fronts streamers and biophysical features using AI techniques and Lagrangian coherent structures (LCS) methods

Within this context, we invite contributions focusing on the skillful analysis and prediction of ocean and ecosystem related processes through ML and AI approaches. Contributions on oceans and ecosystem modeling approaches designed to improve forecasting across various temporal scales and understanding sources of uncertainty/error in the model predictions are also welcome. This session includes, but is not limited to, the following topics of interest on data-driven and ML algorithms; data analysis, explainability, and prediction methods and process-based modeling, integration, and fusion.
