“Modeling allows us to identify who are the vulnerable population and better target the resources.” On the sidelines of the Climate Mobility Summit, we interviewed Dr. Fabien Cottier, Associate Research Scientist at CIESIN, Columbia Climate School. In our discussion, Dr. Cottier explored how modelling projections can support the anticipation and planning for future climate mobility. #ClimateMobility

Grant news! Warwick Statistics Professor Jim Smith will collaborate within the newly funded CReDo+: a novel enhancement of a Climate Resilience Demonstrator climate change adaptation decision support tool we first presented in the Glasgow COP. 1/4 In this 3 year SIF Beta Collaboration, a primary focus is to use this uncertainty embedded digital twin to manage the emerging risk of extreme heat. 2/4 CReDo+ will scale up a user-friendly platform for asset experts to quantify their combined tacit knowledge of risk under extreme weather conditions into new Bayesian models. 3/4 By connecting these asset impact models across the network, CReDo+ will capture a system level view of cascading risk, enhancing the ability of network operators and wider connected asset owners to build systemic climate resilience and robustness. 4/4

Since we completed our capstone project a little over a month ago, there has been quite a bit of news surrounding data centers, wildfires, and increasing public utility demands. PNW data center boom could imperil power supply within 5 years: https://lnkd.in/g6uvge_u Google is No Longer Claiming to Be Carbon Neutral: https://lnkd.in/gUQuuyDd Level 3 evacuations expanded for Pioneer Fire along Lake Chelan as fire grows: https://lnkd.in/g-iWCfCS While it's distressing to see some of our predictions and theories materialize, I'm really proud of my team (Aartdina van den Hoek, Skyler Ruff, Hez S.) for investigating this topic! As artificial intelligence and cloud computing continues to gain traction and our climate continues to become more hostile, it's important to understand the short and long term risks and threats this poses to our energy infrastructure. Shout out to Phillip Bruner, PhD for his guidance and the UW Foster MS in Business Analytics (MSBA) program for giving us the tools necessary to do this research!

Check out this story about a group of UW Foster School of Business students and Professor Phillip Bruner, PhD, the founder of the UW Climate Risk Lab! They combined data on data centers, grid infrastructure and wildfires to highlight how the combination of climate change and our increasing digital needs are raising wildfire risks. Using this analysis, they shared several conclusions as well in the report that I highly recommend you read. Also, they used stories effectively to showcase their analysis. Take a look!
