Petition to the Government of Canada

Whereas:
Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) plays a critical role in protecting Canadians through weather forecasting, severe weather warnings, climate monitoring and scientific research;

Canada is experiencing increasingly frequent and severe weather and climate related events, including wildfires, floods, atmospheric rivers, hurricanes, heat waves, winter storms and derechos;
Weather radar research, observation stations, Weatheradio services and frontline meteorological staff are essential public safety tools, particularly for rural, remote and Indigenous communities;

Recent and proposed reductions to ECCC staffing, research capacity, and public weather services risk weakening Canada’s ability to predict, monitor, and respond to dangerous weather events;

Reliable weather forecasting and climate science are vital to emergency preparedness, transportation safety, agriculture, marine operations and public confidence; and

Canadians deserve a strong, modern and fully supported public weather service.

We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to

1. Reverse cuts to Environment and Climate Change Canada that impact weather forecasting, meteorological research and climate science;

2. Restore and maintain Weatheradio and other accessible public alert systems;

3. Protect and expand weather observation and climate monitoring stations across Canada;

4. Ensure adequate staffing and long-term funding for ECCC programs, scientists, meteorologists and technical experts; and

5. Recognize weather forecasting and climate monitoring as essential public safety infrastructure.

Atmospheric oxidation of the anti-degradation compounds 6PPD and DPPD that are present in tire wear particulates produce approximately 90 compounds that are found in near-road environmental air samples. This mixture caused inflammation and death of human macrophages, and was more toxic than 6PPD-quinone.

AI-Based Weather Forecasting Has Blind Spots

Traditional weather forecasting models are physics-based and rely on supercomputers. Practically speaking, this means that they start from the basic governing equations (like the Navier-Stokes equations) and use approximations to model aspects of the problem in order to make the physics solvable, given constraints on time, computational power, spatial resolution, and so on.

So-called AI models approach the problem differently, training a model on past weather conditions in order to predict future weather. In some respects, this approach is very successful; AI-based models require less computational infrastructure to run and, in recent years, have greatly improved their predictions of everyday weather.

However, these AI models do poorly when predicting extreme weather events, because their training data contain relatively few examples of these events. They show limited ability to extrapolate their predictions to more extreme events. But these events–like the unprecedented 2021 heatwave in the Pacific Northwest or many of the Category 5 hurricanes we’ve seen in the last decade–are happening increasingly often due to climate change. Those events will keep happening, more frequently, as warming continues. Physics-based models can predict and forecast these events in ways that AI-based models fail to because they are limited by their trained experiences.

Researchers are working to find ways to better equip AI-based models with more physical sense, but, as these models proliferate, it’s important for their users (and those of us using their forecasts) to know what their current weaknesses are.
