abstract: "Current RolesProject Manager: Predictive Understanding of Multiscale\ | |||
\ Processes (PUMP)Task Lead: Advancing Machine Learning and Data Assimilation,\ | |||
\ within the PUMP ProjectAlison studies the movement of energy, carbon, and\ | |||
\ nutrients through rivers, lakes, and floodplains to better predict and understand\ | |||
machine learning and other data-driven methods to predict and understand | \ variations in water quality over space and time.As a machine learning modeler\ | ||
resources dynamics. | \ and biogeochemist, she seeks modeling advances that bring together scientific\ | ||
\ knowledge and data-driven models. \u201CProcess-guided deep learning\u201D\ | |||
\ and \u201Cdifferentiable hydrology\u201D are two approaches on which she collaborates.As\ | |||
\ a data scientist, she conducts analyses in ways that are reproducible, efficient,\ | |||
- | \ and transparent, and she has developed tools and workflows to support others\ | ||
- | \ in these goals.In her leadership roles, she facilitates fluid skill sharing\ | ||
- | \ within teams and communities of practice, challenges individuals to excel\ | ||
- | \ in their projects and careers, and coordinates across projects to realize\ | ||
\ the Water Mission Area\u2019s vision of broadly reusable, integrated tools\ | |||
