Mathemathical Methods in Environmental Research

The group „Mathematical Methods in Environmental Research“ hast two areas of research:

• Developing mathematical models for complex natural or social systems, faithfully incorporating all relevant sources of uncertainty.
• Developing and applying efficient algorithms for parameter inference, prediction and control.

In particular, we investigate

• Systems of interacting agents on complex networks (food webs, social systems).
• Emulators, i.e., a way of speeding up slow simulation programs at the cost of adding some extra uncertainty.
• Algorithms for parameter inference with stochastic models (such as Approximate Bayes Computations).
