Dear all, We cordially invite you to the *NFDI4Earth Academy Coffee lecture - "From basin to canopy: modern ML applications across geoscience modalities"* (/Artemii Novoselov, Stripe/) *next Tuesday*. Geoscience is a buffet of data modalities - seismic cubes, SAR/optical satellite stacks, LiDAR DEMs, well logs, and more. This talk is an application-first tour of methods that made previously impossible things routine: discovery of hundreds of new Nazca geoglyphs; automatic mapping of ancient structures in jungle LiDAR; diffusion-based cloud removal and super-resolution for multispectral imagery; and fast surrogates for seismic simulation and inversion. For each vignette, we’ll pair the task (segmentation, denoising, inversion, super-res, change detection, embeddings, forecasting, surrogate modeling, UQ) with the method that worked in practice - Transformers, U-Nets, diffusion, and neural operators - plus open datasets and reproducible baselines. You’ll leave with a pragmatic playbook: how to pick models by modality and task, evaluate properly, and avoid common pitfalls in geospatial ML. *Key Details*:     Date: October 28, 2025     Time: 04:00 PM - 05:00 PM     Venue: Online via Zoom The lecture is open to all. To join the lecture, *please register* here <https://gfz-de.zoom.us/meeting/register/zX9v9CsYQvOPktOI8Yz6cQ#/registrat...;. Grab a coffee, tea, and join us virtually to expand your knowledge; also in our upcoming lectures <https://www.nfdi4earth.de/?view=article&id=366&catid=9>;. We are looking forward to your participation.
