Past events

Chaopeng Shen - From calibration to parameter learning: Harnessing the scaling effects of big data in geoscientific modeling

10 November 2021 | Seminar

Deep learning (DL) models trained on hydrologic observations are recently shown to be highly performant. Used directly, however, they inherit certain flaws of their supervising data.

Hadi Bordbar - The relation of wind-driven coastal and offshore upwelling in the Benguela Upwelling System

13 October 2021 | Seminar

Event description (in third person/present tense):

Alvin Stone - The fundamentals of social media

6 October 2021 | Seminar

This seminar is aimed at those who are new to social media. It will focus primarily on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram.

Christopher Irrgang - Towards neural Earth system modelling by integrating artificial intelligence in Earth system science

29 September 2021 | Seminar

Earth system models (ESMs) are our main tools for quantifying the physical state of the Earth and predicting how it might change in the future under ongoing anthropogenic forcing.

Shannon Bengtson - A Tool for Probabilistic Assessment of Coastal Inundation in the Pacific

15 September 2021 | Seminar

Sea-level rise poses a significant threat to low-lying atoll communities in the Pacific, where inundation can damage infrastructure, homes, water resources, and crops.

Yiling Liu - PhD exit seminar: Predictability of temperature and precipitation on interannual to decadal time scales in perfect-model experiments

10 September 2021 | Seminar

This thesis examines the potentially achievable prediction skill of temperature and precipitation on interannual to decadal time scales by analyzing predictability in perfect-model experiments...
