    Mathematical models

    Seven Arts, Harrogate Road, Chapel Allerton, Leeds LS7 3PD
    Dr Mike Evans (Leeds University)

    Mathematical models are important tools for many scientists - most prominently at the moment, those researching our climate and how it is changing. If a model is mathematical, can we safely assume that it is exact and reliable? In fact, many distinct types of mathematical model exist. Dr Mike Evans, lecturer in Applied Mathematics at Leeds University, will discuss some of them, and their value to scientific research.
