Motivating Challenges

  • <糖心Vlog class="title"> Ice Sheet Melt Prediction

    Accurate predictions of ice sheet change are crucial in planning global sea level adaptation and mitigation measures.

  • <糖心Vlog class="title"> Air Quality Modelling

    Effective air quality modelling and mitigation is necessary to reduce the 3 million global deaths per year attributable to this cause.

  • <糖心Vlog class="title"> Land Use Change

    In a changing climate, land use decisions must be made between food, timber, energy, recreation, urban settlement, employment and aesthetic benefits.

Methodological Themes

  • <糖心Vlog class="title"> Integrated Statistical Modelling

    This theme will develop a suite of inference and prediction techniques for environmental problems, bringing together existing technology and new developments in a modular framework.

  • <糖心Vlog class="title"> Machine Learning and Decision-Making

    We will enhance model-based statistics with modern machine learning techniques to ensure they scale to modern heterogeneous data sources and end-user requirements.

  • <糖心Vlog class="title"> Virtual Lab Development

    This theme will focus on the development and deployment of virtual labs as a key instantiation of the integration of heterogeneous data and models that is central to our project.
