Leveraging AI for Climate Resilience in Africa: Challenges, Opportunities, and the Need for Collaboration

Event date:

Webinar with Amal Nammouchi, Karlstad University and AfriClimate AI. As climate change issues become more pressing, their impact in Africa calls for urgent, innovative solutions tailored to the continent’s unique challenges. While Artificial Intelligence (AI) emerges as a critical and valuable tool for climate change adaptation and mitigation, its effectiveness and potential are contingent upon overcoming significant challenges such as data scarcity, infrastructure gaps, and limited local AI development. This talk explores the role of AI in climate change adaptation and mitigation in Africa. It advocates for a collaborative approach to build capacity, develop open-source data repositories, and create context-aware, robust AI-driven climate solutions that are culturally and contextually relevant.

Leveraging AI for Large-Scale Acoustic Biodiversity Monitoring: Insights from TABMON

Event date:

Webinar with Benjamin Cretois, Norwegian Institute for Nature Research. Advancing biodiversity monitoring is crucial for meeting the EU Biodiversity Strategy targets and addressing gaps in current ecological assessments. However, collecting data to monitor the state of biodiversity is time and resource consuming. Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM), in combination with AI tools offers an efficient alternative to conventional data collection practices. PAM is a non-invasive method that uses sound recorders to capture wildlife vocalizations and environmental sounds over time. It is particularly valuable for monitoring elusive or nocturnal species, such as birds, amphibians, and marine mammals, that are challenging to detect visually. The "Towards a Transnational Acoustic Biodiversity Monitoring Network" (TABMON) project is an initiative to establish a transnational passive acoustic monitoring monitoring network using autonomous acoustic sensors across four different European countries: Norway, Netherlands, France and Spain. TABMON’s objective is to demonstrate how acoustic sensing, coupled with cutting-edge AI, can complement traditional monitoring methods and support the development of methods to better monitor biodiversity. In this talk, we will also share our experiences with the deployment of acoustic recorders, data management strategies, and annotation protocols. These include managing large-scale, networked deployments across diverse landscapes, designing an efficient annotation workflow, and leveraging AI tools to process and analyze massive datasets.

Frontiers in machine learning for weather forecasting

Event date:

Webinar with Joel Oskarsson, Linköping University. Recent years have seen rapid progress in using machine learning models for weather forecasting. These models show impressive performance, matching or even outperforming existing physics-based models, while running in a fraction of the time. This is fundamentally and rapidly changing the landscape of weather forecasting today. In this talk I will discuss the factors that enabled this paradigm shift, the core machine learning methods used and the research questions at the bleeding edge of machine learning for weather. In particular I will focus on how current methods can be extended to regional and probabilistic forecasting. For regional forecasting I will showcase graph-based methods for building limited area weather forecasting models. I will also discuss how generative machine learning methods can enable probabilistic forecasting, giving much-needed estimates of uncertainty and allowing for predicting extreme weather events.

Artificial Intelligence for Climate Change Mitigation

Event date:

Webinar with Alp Kucukelbir, Columbia University. Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to make very significant contributions to climate change mitigation. The complexity and scale of the challenge is broad. In this talk, I break down opportunities for AI to effect incremental and transformational change across multiple sectors, focusing on industries with large carbon footprints. I highlight barriers and risks to the adoption of AI, including the carbon footprint of AI usage worldwide. I focus on the multiple definitions (and ultimate importance) of "trust in AI" and its impact on the integration of AI into complex workflows. This talk is for AI practitioners looking to understand how AI fits into the bigger picture of climate change. I highlight opportunities and challenges in each sector that I hope will motivate collaboration across academia and industry.
