A Lagrangian View on the Seascape: Theory and Applications
Offered By: Instituto de Física Interdisciplinar y Sistemas Complejos (IFISC) via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a comprehensive lecture on Lagrangian perspectives in marine ecosystems, covering theoretical foundations and practical applications. Delve into topics such as internal mixing, ecological modeling, ensemble simulations, and the impacts of climate change on marine environments. Examine network analysis techniques, including degree and betweenness centrality, as well as community structure. Investigate connectivity patterns, genetic distributions, and climate models for marine species. Learn about statistical approaches, Lagrangean methods, and their applications to various scenarios, including taxi services and the Adriatic Sea. Gain insights into the complexities of seascape ecology and the tools used to study and predict marine ecosystem dynamics.
