Description:

Challenges in environmental protection are extremely diverse with many opportunities to infuse environmental research with both new and established mathematical approaches. In this talk I will discuss three different active areas of environmental protection research and the mathematics that my research teams are using to approach them. I will give an overview of how ecological modeling is used for contaminant risk assessment, how aggregation theory informs bioenergy sustainability assessment, and how network analysis is applied to toxicological pathway discovery.
