European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts’ Post

🌍🌐 At ECMWF, #MachineLearning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) are transforming weather and climate forecasting. Meet our ML-scientist Mariana Clare – in the midst of ever-growing interest in ML and #AI, the early-career scientist shares insights into her work and broader initiatives driving these advancements. Mariana’s work includes collaborating with the growing ML team at ECMWF to improve the newly created AIFS, an ML-based system to forecast the weather. Her role increasingly extends beyond research, as she is also sharing ECMWF’s and Destination Earth’s (DestinE) advancements in AI and ML at various events across Europe. Her participation in high-profile events, such as the #DestinE launch in Finland and the Supercomputing Day in Luxembourg, underscores the importance of cooperation in this field. She says: “The ECMWF data-driven model AIFS is truly a novel approach, which offers a strong potential benefit to society.” Read more about Mariana Clare’s work and the exciting future of ML in weather and climate prediction, and what it means for DestinE: ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dhUZ-VvN

Our news highlights from January to July 2024 include forthcoming improvements in the Integrated Forecasting System, initiatives to drive forward Weather Science, and news from the EU-funded services implemented by ECMWF. For details ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eg_V9mUC

🌍🌐 As the Earth-system models underpinning Destination Earth’s Digital Twins run at increasingly high spatial resolutions, reaching km-scales, they capture more explicitly small-scale processes. Accurately representing these details is a crucial focus for #DestinE scientists, to help improve climate projections and understand extreme events. 📽️ In our latest video, ECMWF's Birgit Sützl provides an in-depth introduction to the representation of small-scale processes in Earth-system models and explains the extensive efforts involved in refining these models. ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dBQmHsZy 📹 For more DestinE videos, visit our multimedia page ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eg3iQhaH

🌍🌐 Register now for the third Destination Earth User eXchange meeting.   Discover Destination Earth and connect with the community. The User eXchange events bring together current and potential #DestinE partners to discuss the past, present and future of the initiative.    📅 Date: 15-16 October 2024  📍 Location: Darmstadtium Congress Centre, Darmstadt (Germany) / online  Registration is now open ➡️ https://lnkd.in/ed_-fZ3p The event is hosted by EUMETSAT and co-organised by ECMWF and European Space Agency - ESA.
