Workshop Announcement: ---------------------------------------------------------------- Modeling problems related to our environment ---------------------------------------------------------------- January 14 to January 18, 2013 American Institute of Mathematics Research Conference Center Palo Alto, California http://www.aimath.org/ARCC/workshops/modelenvironment.html ------------ Description: ------------ This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will bring together mathematicians, graduate students, and industry and public agency representatives to work on mathematical modeling problems related to the planet earth. The workshop is organized by Ali Nadim and Ami Radunskaya. For more details please see the workshop announcement page: http://www.aimath.org/ARCC/workshops/modelenvironment.html Space and funding is available for a few more participants. If you would like to participate, please apply by filling out the on-line form (available at the link above) no later than September 14, 2012. Applications are open to all, and we especially encourage women, underrepresented minorities, junior mathematicians, and researchers from primarily undergraduate institutions to apply. -------------------------------- AIM Research Conference Center: -------------------------------- The American Institute of Mathematics (AIM) hosts focused workshops in all areas of the mathematical sciences. AIM focused workshops are distinguished by their emphasis on a specific mathematical goal, such as making progress on a significant unsolved problem, understanding the proof of an important new result, or investigating the convergence between two distinct areas of mathematics.
