10-Minute Museum: Climate Crisis Mathematics
This is a travelling museum you can visit in only 10 minutes. From 01.06.22 until 04.08.22 the exhibition is shown at experimenta in Heidelberg. You learn how mathematical models help us understand global warming and predict changes in the climate.
10-Minute Museum: Climate Crisis Mathematics
This is a travelling museum you can visit in only 10 minutes. You learn how mathematical models help us understand global warming and predict changes in the climate.
Decades before the first supercomputers, mathematician Lewis Fry Richardson dreamed of a sort of factory for global climate modeling.
Today, computer systems with hundreds of thousands of computer cores have made that fantasy a reality. They process billions of weather observations in parallel to run a model.
Bigger and faster computers enable more accurate modeling because they can divide the world into smaller parts and simulate the passage of time using shorter increments.
You can watch and download the video here - use a Google Cardboard or similar for the VR experience.
