Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences

Non-equilibrium Statistical Mechanics and the Theory of Extreme Events in Earth Science

29 October 2013 - 1 November 2013

Organisers: Valerio Lucarini (Hamburg / Reading) and Sandro Vaienti (Centre de Physique Théorique, Marseille)

in association with the Newton Institute programme
Mathematics for the Fluid Earth (21 October 2013 - 20 December 2013)


Participants | Application | Accommodation and Costs

Contributions to the workshop are encouraged in relevant areas and e.g. in the following topics: large deviation theory, extreme value theory, dynamical systems, bifurcations, chaos, predictability, Lyapunov exponents and vectors, data assimilation, multifractal properties of fluid flows, long-term memory, turbulence, stochastic processes, response theory for non-equilibrium systems.

This event will hopefully give impetus for extending the collaboration between meteorologist, climate scientists, physicists, and mathematicians.
