Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) methods are becoming increasingly important in both science and society. In climate science - where complex biophysical and societal processes interact across diverse temporal and spatial scales, and datasets are often large, heterogenous and incomplete - AI and ML methods offer new powerful solutions.

The ENFORCE project consortium will meet at the Natural History Museum in the city of Heraklion to review the first year of the project and develop an action plan for 2026.

Contemporary socio-ecological-technological systems are non-ergodic: their future trajectories aren’t just probabilistic echoes of the past but are continuously reshaped by evolving causal structures, emergent feedbacks, and path-dependent thresholds.

Risk science thus faces epistemological challenges that can contribute to spawning maladaptive policies, unforeseen trade-offs, and cascading failures.
