The NSF and NSERC-funded Artificial Intelligence and Biodiversity Change (ABC) Global Climate Center brings together ecologists and computer scientists from six universities in the United States and Canada to develop new AI-enabled, data-supported approaches for understanding the impacts of climate change on biodiversity. The Center will develop and implement a variety of AI-based methods and tools for integration and analysis of biodiversity data from remote sensing imagery from satellites and low-flying aircrafts, ground-based visual and audio sensors, DNA sequences, and citizen science efforts, enabling the global monitoring, analysis, and assessment of biodiversity changes. The Center is pursuing these goals through a broad network of stakeholders from the U.S., UK and EU, plus Canada, Australia, Africa, India, and Central America, including representatives from academic institutions, multi-institution research collaborations, governmental agencies, NGOs, and industry.
Mission
To establish a community-engaged and multi-sector stakeholder co-designed framework for monitoring, analyzing, and assessing the impact of climate change on biodiversity through AI-enabled, data supported approaches at large scale and high resolution across space, time, and units of life.
Vision
We envision harnessing AI-driven biodiversity monitoring at unprecedented scales to understand and address the profound impact of climate change. Our dynamic cycle integrates goal-setting, metric definition, climate-focused metric assessment, trend analysis, and informed action. This collaborative effort engages diverse stakeholders, from researchers and policymakers to local communities and citizen scientists, fostering connections across sectors like agriculture and public health. Our vision promotes a holistic approach to mitigate the intricate challenges posed by climate change on biodiversity.
