Description:
Mathematics is a fundamental tool of the geosciences, with many branches of
the geosciences using sophisticated mathematics to address research problems. However, there is
an increased need for communication among geoscientists and mathematicians to encourage the
development of mathematical frontiers for geoscience research, to understand how mathematical
methods can be applied across disciplinary boundaries in the geosciences, and to identify areas of
the geosciences that could benefit from new developments in mathematics.
The aim of this workshop is to bring together scientists from the broad spectrum of disciplines within both geoscience and mathematics who are interested in a mathematical approach to geoscience problems.
