Integrating Expertise: Predicting Hazardous Weather through Convergence Science and Artificial Intelligence

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.
