The Berlin Summit will bring together invited participants from across the world to draft the concept for the Earth Virtualization Engines (EVE), presently envisioned as a digital infrastructure that exploits the latest advances in information technology (HPC and AI). This endeavor aspires to operationalize a global climate prediction and information system across regional partners or nodes and responds to the need to help vulnerable communities and sectors anticipate the consequences of climate change.
At the Berlin Summit experts will meet to discuss and revise the white paper (being prepared ahead of the summit) on five facets of EVE:
- Climate information for vulnerable sectors and communities
- Advancing the science to support early warning and adaptation
- Developing a digital infrastructure to provide multi-tiered climate information for all
- Optimal Earth-system data integration and monitoring
- Structure and governance models
