Contextualization of the Place and Role of Artificial Intelligence in Climate Hazard Management

Currently we do not have full and sufficient knowledge of climate hazards. These include both climatic conditions linked to long-term human intervention in natural ecosystems and uncontrolled climatic events and catastrophes, which are caused by natural factors such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Climate risk is therefore very difficult to determine, a state of affairs which, unfortunately, climate sceptics or political populists are using to achieve short-term public benefits. The state of knowledge of climate hazard management is related to the adopted principles of crisis management in the area of dysfunctions, anomalies, extremes, incidents, accidents and climate catastrophes. The aim of this chapter is to present mechanisms for contextualizing the place and role of artificial intelligence in climate hazard management. The scope of the chapter covers issues of analog operational security and physical protection systems, as well as operational cybersecurity and cyber protection and climate change along with the definition of secure management of climate data. The subject of the chapter is the contextualization of the place and the role of artificial intelligence in climate hazard management.
