Join Dr. Horen Kuecuekyan on a journey through the intersection of climate modeling, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning (ML), and see how these disciplines combine to transform our ability to predict, explain, and respond to the planet’s most complex system. This book moves beyond prediction to comprehension, giving scientists, data professionals, and policymakers the tools to reason about climate science with clarity and precision.
From physical climate models grounded in conservation laws to physics-informed machine learning and causal reasoning frameworks, this work bridges the gap between traditional simulation and next-generation AI-driven approaches. Dr. Kuecuekyan explores how hybrid reasoning models combine the rigor of physics with the adaptability of data science, yielding more reliable forecasts of extreme events, emissions, and long-term climate change scenarios.
Gain deep insight into inductive, deductive, and causal reasoning, which are the intellectual pillars that support the science of climate understanding. Through real-world case studies, see how explainable AI (XAI) is reshaping trust and transparency in climate prediction, and why reasoning-based models are essential for accurate and actionable climate intelligence.
Whether you are a climate scientist, data modeler, engineer, or policy analyst, this book equips you with the frameworks needed to navigate uncertainty, interpret massive climate datasets, and integrate AI responsibly into research and decision-making.
Horen has a PhD in Math and Biochemistry and has worked as a scientist on many top-secret government projects, as well as for MCI WorldCom, Sensis (SAAB), and MSC. He has 24 patents, including two developed for the DoD. For artificial intelligence, he specializes in automated reasoning, analysis of deep nested networks, and logical and probabilistic inference. For biochemistry, he specializes in DNA quantum tunneling, specifically studying tunneling rates.
