Capstone Conference: Mathematical Modeling for Renewable Energy and Environment
Topic
In this conference, we bring together researchers from a broad range of active research areas related to energy transition and climate change where the common element is weather. We aim to highlight varied mathematical models of weather-related phenomena and encourage exchange of ideas among distinct research areas.
