Title: From Chaos to Clarity: Revealing Oceanic Transport Pathways In Real-World Applications Through Dynamical Systems
Abstract: Finding order in the apparent chaos that seems to govern transport processes in the ocean is a challenge. Dynamical system tools, such as Lagrangian Descriptors reveal time dependent geometries in the ocean that comprise an efficient underlying transport network. In this talk, I will show how these theoretical approaches are now being applied to address various marine problems, including oil spills, harmful algae, marine litter and search and rescue operations, bridging the gap between academic theory and real-world applications.
The seminar will take place in Room S08 at the Faculty of Sciences.
