We're pleased to release DIFFICE-jax v1.0, the foundation of our Science paper and a #DIFFerentiable #NeuralNetwork solver for #DataAssimilation of ICE shelves written in #JAX:

📄Peer-reviewed by JOSS #OpenSource: joss.theoj.org/papers/10.21...

From #PhysicsInformedML to #MLInformedPhysics: We're excited about the "knowledge discovery" component of this project utilizing vast amount of Earth data. 🌎
There is much more out there to be discovered, as nature's imagination is far greater than that of humans. Don't stop searching.💡

In Science, researchers report a physics-informed #DeepLearning model that can predict the deformation behavior of Antarctic ice shelves, revealing complexities of the process that extend beyond the traditional understanding.

NASA Earth data + AI enable us to infer the constitutive models critical for ice dynamics. AI is useful, but no data = no discovery. Below is an example of the training data: a velocity map showing the dynamics of the Antarctic Ice Sheet. Source: #NASA.

Looking forward to learning about recent advances in #AI4Climate at the @apsphysics.bsky.social #GlobalPhysicsSummit meeting. Come check out the back-to-back focus sessions, "AI Applications in Weather and Climate I & II," on Tuesday from 9:00 AM to 1:30 PM!

A first-of-its-kind analysis revealed gaps in our understanding of how Antarctic ice is moving and melting. The findings could improve predictions about the conditions we may face in the future.

Finally published @science.org:
Can AI help yield new insights from vast amounts of Earth data?
We use large-scale data and neural nets to find the constitutive laws of glacial ice, which differ from commonly assumed forms in conventional models. #ScienceResearch

Great reporting from @wired.com about what DOGE is doing to Antarctica, affecting US science and national security. This is what we will lose.

We can't just leave our bases in Antarctica empty. South Pole! McMurdo! Palmer!

At some point we might need a GoFundMe.

The mass firing of both new hires and recently promoted senior staff within #NOAA, including mission-critical and life-saving roles at the National Weather Service (#NWS), is profoundly alarming.
