On 30 March 2026 a 1-day workshop will be organized at CWI by AIMET-NL, the newly initiated Dutch research network on AI for Weather & Climate. The topic of this meeting is Scientific Machine Learning & Uncertainty Quantification.
The use of AI methods for weather and climate applications is developing very rapidly. Only a few years ago, fully data-based weather forecasts made with AI/ML methods seemed like a remote possibility. Nowadays weather forecasting systems based on AI have reached a level of predictive skill that is competitive in many respects with state-of-the-art physics-based weather forecasting models. More broadly, researchers are quickly tapping into the potential of AI for advancing modelling and analysis of weather and climate.
Reflecting these developments, the AIMET-NL network was initiated in 2025 by a group of researchers based in the Netherlands. The workshop at CWI will bring together the research community and highlight important connections to the adjacent research topics of Scientific Machine Learning and of Uncertainty Quantification.
We kindly ask you to confirm your attendance by registering no later than Monday 23 March, using this link. The registration fee for the workshop is 20 euros. We also note that the number of participants is limited due to room capacity constraints, so early registration is recommended.
The tentative schedule for the workshop is below.
Organizers: Nikolaj Mücke & Daan Crommelin
