weather forecasting

Predicting the weather is hard. It requires a lot of physics, a lot of maths, and a huge amount of computing power. Can AI help?

Clouds make the weather, yet their detail isn't taken into account in weather forecasts. Artificial intelligence might be able to help.

Predicting the weather is hard. But with more data and computing power becoming available, artificial intelligence may be able to help.

How does your phone know what the weather's going to be like?

How does your weather app know the percentage chance of rain? It's down to ensemble forecasting!

We talk to world-leading climate scientists Tim Palmer about climate and weather, the science of uncertainty, and why there needs to be a CERN for climate change.

In this podcast we ask two experts to explain the models that predict how the Earth's climate will behave in the future.

The complex maths of weather and climate.

Not if their predictions are made clearer...

The tsunami of December 26th 2004 has focused the world's attention on this terrifying consequence of an underwater earthquake. Michael McIntyre explores the underlying wave mathematics.

All of science can be regarded as motivated by the search for rules behind the randomness of nature, and attempts to make prediction in the presence of uncertainty. Chris Budd describes the search for pattern and order in chaos.
