How We Help Partners

Prepare for and reduce the risks of weather extremes and natural hazards.

Assure food, water, and energy security under climate change and variability as well as population growth and movement.

Design and operate infrastructures and lifelines to improve resiliency.

Manage and preserve biodiversity and ensure ecosystem services in oceanic, marine, and terrestrial ecosystems.

Harnessing AI to Turn Complexity Into Planet Saving Innovations

Understanding a coupled natural-human ecosystem as complex as our planet's requires a combination of AI and process knowledge. We are developing sophisticated knowledge-integrated AI around climate risk, resilience, and energy sustainability in conjunction with public, private, and government partners around the world. Our research focuses on:

Human Knowledge Guided AI for Climate Science and Impacts

Precision AI-Based Weather for Disasters and Renewable Energy

AI Risks for National Critical Functions and Key Resources

Human Stakeholder-Guided AI for Climate-Water-Energy Nexus

AI on Graphs for Renewable Energy Production and Distribution
