This NSF-funded symposium emphasizes building a community that has common goals and shared resources. It will attempt to demystify machine learning (ML) for those new to the field, build up machine learning expertise, encourage collaboration among those already involved, and build a ML community and organization for all participants. We encourage newcomers to ML, especially those from backgrounds which are underrepresented in hydrology!

This event will be following a mixed format, with in-person and virtual components.
