Full STEAM Ahead: Representation in the Geosciences and Social Sciences

Location: La Nouvelle C (New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center)

Representation Matters. This session will highlight the work of the NSF-Funded Full STEAM Ahead program for underrepresented groups in the geoscience and social sciences. Despite a growing consensus that the lack of diversity in science presents an inequity requiring action, decades of research, policies, and projects have shown that diversifying science is not as simple as encouraging women and minorities to earn university degrees in STEM. The goal of this AMS session is to provide novel concepts to improve the career progression and sense of belonging in the geoscience and social sciences through an innovative, hybrid mentoring program. The session will highlight the NSF-funded Full STEAM Ahead Program, its achievements including the AI-generated mentor/mentee pairing process and direct testimonials from participants. This session is open to professionals at all stages of his/her/their career, with a focus on early career success strategies.

Please note only invited abstracts are being accepted to this session.

Place-based Convergence Science in Action: Story-sharing with the Rising Voices, Changing Coast's Louisiana Hub

Location: Great Hall C (New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center)

This Presidential Session brings together Tribal leaders and organizers from Louisiana with atmospheric and earth system science partners sharing from their experiences in implementing convergence science together. The partnership is through The Rising Voices Changing Coasts' National Indigenous and Earth Sciences Convergence Hub, a NSF-funded large-scale Coastlines and People Hubs (CoPe) project that brings together university-trained scientists and Indigenous knowledge-holders to study the interactions between natural, human-built, and social systems in coastal populated environments. The locally-focused, place-based session will share experiential-based observations of extreme and increasingly common weather events, including rapid storm intensification, hurricane season, tidal (sunny-day/nuisance) flooding, and more. The roundtable-style conversation will include weaving in stories and actions, with the challenges and opportunities for weaving the place- and lived-experienced-based scientific information with western-science derived tools to support communities' informed climate adaptation decision-making.

Hurricane Katrina: 20-year Retrospective

Location: Great Hall A (New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center)

This August is the 20th anniversary of the landfall of Hurricane Katrina, the deadliest storm (1,300+ deaths) to strike the U.S. since the Okeechobee hurricane of 1928 and still the costliest weather event in American history (nearly $190B in losses). Katrina’s landfall caused devastating and long-lasting damage to New Orleans and its people, many of whom were permanently displaced by the extensive flooding resulting from the city's levee breach. Katrina also caused severe damage to the coastal environment of southern Louisiana and surrounding Gulf states. Many impacts are still acutely felt today even as recovery continues.

UCAR President Antonio Busalacchi, a part-time New Orleans resident, will moderate this special AMS Presidential Session panel taking a retrospective look at Katrina as an event and the 20 years post-Katrina. An interdisciplinary panel of local experts, leaders, and analysts will explore Katrina from multiple perspectives (i.e., meteorological, sociocultural, economic, environmental, and historical) including its ramifications on the people, economy, and environment of southern Louisiana. The class disparity in how communities in southern Louisiana were affected and the toll on the Black population in New Orleans and the ensuing diaspora to nearby regions and states, in particular, will be among the topics discussed. The panel will also examine and evaluate national and regional policy responses and ongoing recovery efforts, including the ongoing coastal/wetland restoration led by the Army Corps of Engineers and the State of Louisiana.

This AMS Presidential Session panel will take account of the lessons learned from Katrina over the last two decades and ask whether we, as a nation and as an AMS community, are prepared for the next Katrina, wherever and whenever it may strike.

Predictability Across Scales

Location: Great Hall C (New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center)

Accurate climate predictions on sub-seasonal to decadal (S2D) timescales can greatly benefit society. Building on the success of weather forecasting, research into S2D predictions has rapidly advanced over the past five years. This has been spurred on by an increasing sense of urgency for human societies to have credible predictions of the time evolution of regional climate to provide information as to what we are going to have to adapt to. Unlike weather forecasts, where initial conditions play a key role in deterministic predictions, in S2D climate predictions their influence diminishes gradually as the prediction timescale extends, while boundary conditions and external forcings become increasingly important. In this presidential session, we will explore the challenges and opportunities for improving predictions on S2D timescales via keynotes and panel discussions.

Charting the Course of Artificial Intelligence for Weather Prediction: Where are we Today and Where are We Going?

Location: La Nouvelle C (New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center)

The emergence and rapid maturation of a new class of weather forecast models built using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) approaches in recent years is generating substantial interest within and beyond the weather enterprise. One factor driving this interest is that these models – which include Google DeepMind’s GraphCast, NVIDIA’s FourCastNet, and Microsoft’s Aurora, among many others – appear to meet or exceed the skill of numerical weather forecast models when using standard metrics such as the 500mb anomaly correlation for medium-range forecast applications. The potential that this new approach to weather modeling could further push the barriers of forecast accuracy garners much public attention, but the opportunities they afford are much greater. For example, a trained “AI-NWP” model can be used to generate a forecast similar to the operational, deterministic GFS in just a few minutes, but without the need for a massive supercomputer. Such computational efficiency opens the door to massive ensembles for uncertainty quantification and probabilistic forecasting, among many other applications.

Significant Hurricanes Helene and Milton and Their Impacts

Location: La Nouvelle C (New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center)

The significant 2024 Atlantic Hurricane season devastated communities across the nation with historic flooding, extreme winds, deadly storm surge, and landslides. Fueled by record high sea surface temperatures, Hurricanes Helene and Milton caused historic disasters that will take years to recover from economically, physically and emotionally. This panel discussion starts the dialog of how our Weather, Water, and Climate Enterprise community can work together to address the future needs of our weather, water and climate enterprise to best accomplish the goals of a Weather Ready Nation. From those directly impacted to those who had significant roles through the event, this session just touches the surface of the impacts and identified needs that will be topics of discussion for years to come within our community.

From helicopter science to meaningful partnerships - Avoiding scientific neo-colonialist practices in international collaborations

Location: La Nouvelle AB (New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center)

Neo-colonial research or neo-colonial science is also described as helicopter research or parachute science. It describes a practice in which researchers visit a location, collect data or samples, travel home to do analyses, and publish results, all without involving local scientists, experts or communities, or having any further communication with them.

“As described by scientists who have been subjected to the practice, it occurs when foreign researchers swoop in, disregard people with on-ground experience and give little to no credit to local collaborators on published works. When the visitors depart, they are likely to take data with them, and perhaps biological samples, as well as career prospects denied to local researchers.“ (Watson, C. 2021)

In this extractive approach, researchers assume the right to collect data, regardless of ownership or occupancy of the land. This colonialistic behavior in the Earth system sciences has its roots in the history of European scientific imperialism and the conquering of Indigenous lands and people.

Unfortunately, still today some scientific endeavors continue to operate in an extractive, non-inclusive way. These practices might lead scientists to take advantage of local infrastructures without including or acknowledging local researchers or communities. For example, globally 40 % of papers about a specific volcano do not include an author whose affiliation is based in the country where the volcano is located, while 56 % are led by authors not based in the country of the volcano (Lerner et. al, 2023).

By not recognizing and respecting local knowledge and expertise, and by failing to involve local experts in designing and conducting research, scientists of today perpetuate colonial behaviors of the past.

We invite papers that discuss:

Examples of neocolonialism practices and their impact
Positive examples of authentic research partnerships
Changes in research, funding, education & training, science communication, and publishing practices that can address helicopter science
