    Interested in listening to 6 years of AI and hydrology in-practice? Our CTO Alden Keefe Sampson will be speaking to the SERVIR Geo-AI Working Group to share how HydroForecast's approach translates hydrologic science into a deep learning context, with examples drawn from the techniques which have most contributed to HydroForecast's accuracy. In the presentation, Alden will share the research approaches the HydroForecast team has found most fruitful and examine what lessons generalize more broadly to earth system modeling with AI. If you’d like to see a recording after the event, please sign up to our newsletter via the link. [https://hubs.la/Q02Htxy80]
