报告摘要：

Hydroclimatic extremes (e.g. floods and droughts) are destructive natural disasters resulting in severe impacts on vulnerable individuals and communities with massive social, economic, and environmental consequences. Globally, flood risk already affects 1.81 billion people. The hydrologic forecasting is therefore essential to allow evidence-informed actions to reduce disaster risk and increase flood/drought resilience for growing populations. Traditional hydrologic forecasting systems include physics-based or conceptual hydrology models to forecast streamflow and hydrodynamic models to translate forecasted streamflow. However, this approach involves great uncertainties. As a facet of Artificial Intelligence (AI), purely data-driven deep learning models have successfully produced very high-accuracy simulations for many hydrologic variables with large data sets, opening up many new opportunities to progress research in hydrology. However, it has very generic internal structures that do not resolve hydrologic dynamics. Therefore, the question remains whether AI-based hydrologic models could improve flood/drought resilience.
