Global Climate Model (GCM) calibration is a multi-step process done by hand and is a tedious and time-consuming
Global Climate Model (GCM) calibration is a multi-step process done by hand and is a tedious and time-consuming process. GCM calibration involves both high-dimensional input and output spaces. Many rigorous calibration methods have been proposed in both statistical and climate literature, but many are not practical to implement. In this talk, I will demonstrate a promising and practical calibration approach on the atmosphere only model of the Department of Energy’s Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SM).
Speaker Bio: Lyndsay is a statistician at Sandia National Laboratories. She received her B.S. in Mathematics at Bucknell University and Ph.D. in Statistics from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in 2017 with a focus on spatio-temporal analysis. At Sandia, Lyndsay currently conducts and leads research centered around space-time statistics with applications to remotely sensed data, geoengineering, climate model calibration and disease modeling to name a few. Current research topics include nonstationary space-time methods, accounting for missing data in space-time point processes, Bayesian hierarchical modeling, and Spatial Dynamic Linear Models.

Organizations that provide better worker support have better worker retention. In K–12 public education, teachers commonly feel unsupported by their schools and districts as a result of the gap between top-down, one-size-fits-all resource allocation models and teachers’ individual resource needs. In this study, we examine whether a recent trend in education—teacher crowdfunding platforms—effectively fills this gapand improves retention.
Speaker Bio: Samantha Keppler is an Assistant Professor of Technology and Operations at the University of Michigan Stephen M. Ross School of Business. Her expertise is in the application of operations management theories to the education sector. Her research derives insights about how to improve education operations, or the management of human and material resources in public schools, educational nonprofits, and edtech companies. Professor Keppler earned her Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering and Management Science from the McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science at Northwestern University. Prior to pursuing her Ph.D., she was a public high school math teacher for three years in the Bronx, New York.
