- Seminars & Colloquia
Saturday, March 28, 2015
4:00 AM
170 & 182 Dennison Building
The air and water around us are continually moving in extremely complicated ways. Such motion is often invisible to us, though we can glimpse it in the billow of a smokestack or the surface of a rushing river. This lecture will explore what these hidden motions look like and why they make it so hard to predict even basic quantities in the Earth's atmosphere, oceans, and interior.
All talks are free and refreshments will be served. Visitor parking for the seminars (Central Campus) is across the street from the Dennison Building in the U-M Church Street parking structure. There is a $2.00 parking charge implemented by U-M Parking Services.
