Event-Based Early Warning of Vineyard Disease Risk from Environmental Time Series

The paper proposes an event-based approach to predict transitions into vineyard disease‑risk periods within a 3–7 day window, rather than daily disease status. It defines events only after a minimum disease‑free gap to reduce label fragmentation and uses multi‑year agro‑meteorological data to capture humidity, rainfall, temperature, and seasonal patterns. Experiments with XGBoost, LSTM, and TCN models show that this formulation improves short‑horizon warning, highlighting trade‑offs among recall, lead time, and false alerts.

From Manual Construction to AI-Driven Scenario Emergence: Rethinking Catastrophe Risk Modeling

The article introduces the TAISE framework, which uses AI weather forecasting models to generate coherent extreme weather sequences at a fraction of the cost of traditional catastrophe risk models. By self‑iteratively producing continuous global atmospheric fields, TAISE captures temporal continuity and cross‑regional correlations that snapshot‑based methods miss. A proof‑of‑concept experiment shows an order‑of‑magnitude reduction in computational cost while maintaining key statistical properties of extreme events.

Scalable Geospatial Machine Learning for Power-Line Asset Risk: Integrating Remote Sensing for Lightning and Vegetation Risk Modelling

The paper presents a modular, scalable framework for estimating the probability of failure (PoF) of power‑line assets using geospatial machine learning. It integrates diverse environmental predictors—topography, vegetation indices, lightning climatology, proximity features, and operational records—to model vegetation‑ and lightning‑related failure modes. The architecture is designed to be computationally efficient, easily extensible to new data sources, and suitable for large‑scale utility deployment, enabling asset‑level risk stratification for inspection and resilience planning.

Improving global precipitation forecasts with an AI weather model trained on satellite observations

The paper presents Laxmi, a retrained version of the AIFS weather model that uses satellite-based precipitation observations instead of ERA5 reanalysis data. Laxmi achieves a 19% improvement in global probabilistic accuracy, reduces drizzle overprediction by 33%, and boosts the 95th percentile Brier skill score by 57%. In a case study of 10 Indian tropical storms, Laxmi accurately forecasted 150 mm event-total precipitation in 7 events, outperforming both the original AIFS and the leading physical model IFS.
