Description

The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Earth and Environmental Systems Sciences Division (EESSD), within the Office of Science’s Biological and Environmental Research (BER) program, has issued a call for white papers.

White papers must be received by Monday, February 15, 2021, at 5 p.m. Eastern time.

According to the DOE call, the white papers are intended to “inform the design of three sequential workshops (conducted in 2021–2022) focused on answering the following overarching question of: How can DOE directly leverage artificial intelligence (AI) to engineer a substantial (paradigm-changing) improvement in earth system predictability?”

According to the announcement, DOE’s vision is to make radical improvements in predictive capabilities by applying artificial intelligence (AI) methods to build a new integrative system that spans the continuum from observations to predictive modeling. This effort will require the exploration of AI across the MODEX enterprise to determine the most impactful applications along the observation-modeling continuum. 

See the DOE announcement for more details, including background, purpose, white paper structure, and submission details.
