Spatiotemporal Deep Learning for Climate Anomaly Prediction
Spatiotemporal deep learning for robust climate anomaly forecasting.
About This Course
Climate anomalies such as heatwaves, floods, droughts, and extreme precipitation events are increasing in frequency and intensity due to climate change. Accurate prediction of these anomalies requires models that can capture complex spatial patterns and temporal dynamics across large-scale environmental datasets.
This workshop focuses on the application of spatiotemporal deep learning techniques to climate anomaly prediction. Participants will explore how advanced AI models—including CNNs, RNNs, LSTMs, ConvLSTMs, Transformers, and Graph Neural Networks—can be used to analyze satellite imagery, geospatial datasets, and time-series climate data.
Aim
The aim of this workshop is to equip participants with the theoretical foundations and practical skills required to design, implement, and evaluate spatiotemporal deep learning models for accurate climate anomaly prediction.
