“Weather & Climate Extremes and Machine Learning: Recent Development and Prospective”
Workshop organised by IMI in collaboration with CSIRO, held at the Department of Meteorology, Stockholm University, 19-20 June 2024
Weather and Climate (W&C) extremes have serious impacts on the society, infrastructure and the environment. It has been observed that W&C extremes are increasing in intensity and frequency. These extremes are multivariate by nature, and therefore uni-dimensional methods commonly used in climate research come with weaknesses. Machine learning
(ML) is a relatively new method, which has been introduced recently in climate research.
This workshop will discuss recent development of multivariate extremes, e.g. archetypes, in combination with ML. We will bring together climate scientists and applied mathematicians/statisticians to discuss the development in the field with outlook for future directions.
Dates/times:
