Hailstorms and turtles and snow…oh my! Imagine you’re a National Weather Service forecaster preparing to warn about a coming hailstorm. Or maybe you’re a sea turtle conservationist on a mission to protect these marine reptiles from looming cold weather. You could even be a New York State Department of Transportation specialist deciding between jumping into the snow plow or salt truck. What information does NSF NCAR provide to make these critical decisions?
In this Explorer Series lecture, Mariana Cains shares what convergence research is and showcases how researchers use AI to address societal needs and predict hazardous weather across a medley of hazards and decision-makers. Mariana will explain how researchers at NSF NCAR and collaborators from across the country and disciplines work in integrated teams to better understand how and why these critical decisions are made and to develop information and tools that are both useful and used by decision-makers.
