📅 Event Dates: 3–8 May 2026, Vienna & Online
🌱 Session Overview (NH6.5 and Co-organized by ESSI1)
Hydro-climatic extremes, such as floods, droughts, heatwaves, and storms, continue to escalate in frequency and intensity due to climate change. This session will showcase how remote sensing, artificial intelligence (AI), data mining, and physical modeling are revolutionizing our ability to predict, monitor, and manage these extreme events. We will focus on innovative applications and real-world case studies demonstrating how these technologies can assist in disaster risk reduction, emergency response, and climate adaptation.
