An algorithm developed at MIT assists in predicting the occurrence rate of severe weather.

Scientists from MIT and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have developed a way to increase the accuracy of large-scale climate models, allowing for more precise predictions of extreme weather incidents in specific locations. Their process involves using machine learning in tandem with existing climate models to make the models' predictions closer to real-world observations. This…

An algorithm developed at MIT aids in predicting the occurrence of severe weather events.

Assessing a community’s risk of extreme weather events – such as catastrophic storms and catastrophic flooding – is a key task for policymakers who are trying to prepare for the potential impacts of global climate change. Despite major advancements in technology and modeling techniques, however, these forecasts leave a lot to be desired. Now, a…
