Simplifying Complexity

How do you map a volcanic plume?


Listen Later

Today, we're going to return to the idea of taking concepts from complexity science and applying them to situations in the real world.

In this episode, we're joined again by Melanie Moses, Professor of Computer Science at the University of New Mexico, and External Faculty at the Santa Fe Institute. She's going to share with us about her recent trip to Iceland to study active volcanoes. More specifically, Melanie is going to explain how you can program a swarm of drones to fly in formation and map the CO2 plume of a volcano.
