ARIA Opportunity Space: Scoping Our Planet
AI for Climate Interventions
Climate interventions like solar radiation management are risky and poorly evaluated, relying on slow, expensive, and often opaque modeling approaches. Encode fellow Philine Lou Bommer will work with Tipply AI to build an explainable AI framework that combines expert-in-the-loop forecasting and foundation models to assess the safety and effectiveness of climate interventions on a global scale. This research could enable transparent, trustworthy, and adaptive climate intervention planning, empowering policymakers and scientists to avoid dangerous climate thresholds while improving global climate resilience.

Philine is completing a PhD in Explainable AI (XAI) for Climate Science from TU Berlin. She built QuantusXClimate, the first-ever tutorial on XAI evaluation, comparison, and selection for climate teams. She led a projects developing frontier XAI methods and building S2S weather forecasting models, submitting to top-tier ML conferences and interdisciplinary journals.
