Argonne National Laboratory, a U.S. Department of Energy national laboratory located near Chicago, Illinois, has an opening for a highly motivated term position in the Decision & Infrastructure Sciences Division. Machine learning (ML), specifically deep learning (DL) an AI foundation models, has demonstrated success in predicting weather for 1-14 days with skill on par with numerical weather prediction. Recently Argonne successfully implemented, AI foundation models for medium range weather forecasting (STORMER) and AERIS, a state-of-the-art Seasonal-to-sub-seasonal weather model AI model.

A successful candidate will collaborate with this group to further develop AERIS, coupling the model with ocean and land components, data assimilation, multi-modality and regional refinement. In particular, this position will utilize generative AI transformer model to create a calibrated ensemble system for S2S at high resolution (30-km and finer) to deliver probabilistic weather forecasts b...
