Intelligent Earth: AI As A Catalyst For Climate Action
Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is assuming an increasingly influential role in climate science, providing advanced tools capable of interpreting vast, complex, and multi-dimensional environmental datasets. Traditional climate modeling approaches, while grounded in physical principles, frequently struggle to deliver high-resolution, real-time, and region-specific forecasts because of heavy computational demands, incomplete observations, and uncertainties in representing small -- scale processes. Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, especially machine learning and deep learning, provide strong substitutes …
