E013: Bomb Cyclones, Science Communication, and Climate as a Dynamic System with Dmitri Kalashnikov

Dmitri Kalashnikov is a climate scientist and National Science Foundation postdoctoral research fellow at the University of California-Merced. Having created Convolutional Neural Network-based predictive models for lightning in the western United States; he is currently working on applying these predictive models to climate models to project future changes in the climatology of lightning storms in the western United States. The humans discuss Dimitri’s journey into a Ph.D, climate change as a dynamic system, the challenges of communicating climate science; bomb cyclones and the impossibility of humans creating or steering hurricanes.
