DESCRIPTION:\nThis webinar series focuses on ECMWF machine learning models
  and what you might need to know as an operational forecaster to use their
  outputs effectively. The webinars will focus on ECMWF's AIFS Single and A
 IFS ENS models.\nWebinars are aimed at operational forecasters from ECMWF 
 Member and Co-operating States. Operational forecasters in National Meteor
 ological Services and other organisations from around the world are welcom
 e to join however some data and tools may not be available to forecasters 
 from non-ECMWF Member and Co-operating States.\nAll webinars will be recor
 ded and made available on YouTube afterwards.\n\nWebinars\nWebinar 1 - Dis
 cover Machine Learning Models for Operational Forecasters\n11 November 202
 5\, 10:00 - 11:00 UTC / 11:00 - 12:00 CET\nThis webinar briefly described 
 ECMWF's machine learning work and models - AIFS Single v1 and AIFS ENS v1.
  How to access the machine learning model forecast data and products using
  ecCharts and OpenCharts was demonstrated. An overview of future plans for
  the models was given.\nSpeakers: Milana Vuckovic\, Gabriel Moldovan\, Bec
 ky Hemingway (ECMWF)\nRecording: https://youtu.be/xKE5UmPEN2I\n \nWebinar
  2 - What you need to be aware of when using ECMWF's Machine Learning mode
 ls\n18 November 2025\, 10:00 - 11:00 UTC / 11:00 - 12:00 CET\nThis webinar
  explored key considerations for operational forecasters when using foreca
 sts produced by AIFS machine learning models. It included verification res
 ults comparing AIFS with ECMWF’s IFS and other machine learning models\,
  and highlighted important points for forecasters to consider when interpr
 eting verification scores.\nSpeakers: Meghan Plumridge\, Thomas Haiden (EC
 MWF)\nRecording: https://youtu.be/5WpO0xS-qCg\n \nWebinar 3 - Case Studie
 s\n25 November 2025\, 14:00 - 15:00 UTC / 15:00 - 16:00 CET\nThis webinar 
 will present a range of case studies comparing the AIFS Single v1 and AIFS
  ENS v1 models with ECMWF’s IFS and other machine learning models\, supp
 orted by model performance statistics and verification scores. It will al
 so discuss known AIFS forecast issues.\nSpeakers: Linus Magnusson (ECMWF)\
