MONTANA STATE SCIENTIST PART OF TEAM WORKING TO IMPROVE WEATHER FORECASTING WITH ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

BOZEMAN, Mont., Oct. 27 -- Montana State University issued the following press release:

BOZEMAN - A Montana State University snow and atmospheric scientist is working with a team of researchers to harness artificial intelligence for improved precipitation forecasting in the mountain West.

The project, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy through its Genesis Mission, aims to train AI to inform more accurate precipitation forecasting that could help ensure natural hazards preparedness, consistent hydropower generation and protection of the nation's grid infrastructure. The project is being led by DOE's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in partnership with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Boise State University and MSU.
