My name is Svetlana Dubinkina, and I am a mathematician
Earth sciences provide with an endless source of fascinating problems related to weather, climate, subsurface structure of the Earth, to name a few. A question that could be posed is, “Are the changes predictable?” Because then we could stop (reverse) the climate change, predict how much wind energy we are going to produce next 10 years, how much oil or gas is still below the surface and where it is located. To answer these questions requires an interdisciplinary collaboration between scientists from mathematics, physics, climatology, geology, and engineering.
