Climate change is one of the most important issues of our time and modeling climate a critical part of studying climate change. Climate science involves building models, making predictions, and collecting data, and modeling climate change also involves computer science and mathematics – and might require new techniques since the problems are not only new and difficult, but computationally very demanding (i.e., requiring very fast computers or very many computers).

The Modeling Climate Change Lectures, funded by the Evergreen PLATO Royalty Fund, will bring together faculty, students, and members of the local community interested in the challenges involved in modeling climate change. Three Evergreen programs will participate:

  • Energy Systems and Climate Change
  • Data and Information: Quantitative Ecology
  • Mathematical Order of Nature

Each program’s seminar will involve the lecture series. The lecture series will also be open on a space available basis for two or four credits to other students; graduate credit is available as well.

Lectures will be held in LH1.
