Title of Presentation
“Mathematics of Planet Earth”
Earth is a complex planet with an atmosphere, oceans and climates. The human species shares the planet with millions of living species, some of them invasive, and others in danger of disappearing. But what is the link with mathematics? Can mathematics help to understand and manage the planet? You will be surprised to see the variety of scientific questions to the answer of which mathematics can contribute. With mathematical tools, we can discover the history of the Earth, explore its interior, study its climates and find strategies for managing its ecosystems. Mathematics also plays a role in understanding the dangers faced by our planet and its inhabitants: epidemic diseases, global warming, sea level rise and growth of population.
