Dynamical Systems and Reservoir Computing (Lecture 2) by Manish Shrimali

Discussion Meeting
Climate Dynamics and Networks
ORGANIZERS: Neelima Gupte (IIT Madras, India), Ramakrishna Ramaswamy (IIT Delhi, India) and Rupali Sonone (-)
DATE & TIME: 11 November 2024 to 15 November 2024
VENUE: Madhava Lecture Hall
The proposed program will discuss climate dynamics and networks, with special attention to climate networks, a network paradigm for the organization and analysis of climate data. We hope to bring together researchers on both aspects. A good fraction of talks will be talks so that researchers on each aspect will be able to familiarize themselves with the other. We will involve a good fraction of younger researchers, so that activity in this area, which has important applications can grow in the country.
The lectures will focus on the methods and characterizers required for the analysis of climate systems, both from the point of view of analysis and predictions. This involves the study of climate dynamical systems and bifurcation behavior, network characterizers, as well as percolation based measures. We hope to have short pedagogic modules which will introduce each of these separately, and also discuss their implications for phenomena like the El Nino and La Nina phenomena, the Indian monsoon and tropical cyclones. We will also organize an overview talk which connects these issues with climate change.
Eligibility criteria: Researchers at all levels and PhD students who demonstrate some relevance to the topic. Some dual degree and Master's students may be considered, subject to a recommendation from their teachers.
Accommodation will be provided for all non-local participants at our on-campus guest house only.
ICTS is committed to building an environment that is inclusive, non-discriminatory and welcoming of diverse individuals. We especially encourage the participation of women and other under-represented groups.
