The University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa is leading a new project using artificial intelligence to predict the threats of rising seas and stronger storms on coastal freshwater supplies and ecosystems. Associate Professor Jonghyun "Harry" Lee has received a $500,000 grant from the National Science Foundation for this initiative, which aims to address issues like saltwater contamination and ecosystem degradation. The project is crucial as rising seas and stronger storms have significant impacts on drinking water supplies, agriculture, infrastructure, local economies, and the daily lives of millions of people.
