Using deep learning to image the Earth’s planetary boundary layer

MIT Lincoln Laboratory

This schematic of the planetary boundary layer (red line) shows exchanges of moisture and movement of aerosols that occur between the Earth's surface and this lowest level of the atmosphere. Lincoln Laboratory researchers are using deep learning techniques to learn more about PBL features, important for weather and climate studies.
