Instituto de Ciencias Matemáticas, ICMAT-CSIC
Madrid, Spain
Description
ICMAT is a joint research unit of the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas - CSIC (Spanish National Research Council) and three Madrid universities. The ICMAT aims to become a leading international research center of excellence, and offers doctoral and post-doctoral training courses, in a stimulating interdisciplinary environment. It is located in a new building on the campus of the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, with outstanding facilities for mathematical research. In 2011 the ICMAT was awarded the Severo Ochoa distinction, the most prestigious Spanish award for research excellence centers, and as of december 2012 five members of the institute have been awarded with European Research Council grants. ICMAT offers a 2 year postdoctoral appointment for researchers in Mathematics with an excellent curriculum. The main goal of the laboratory is concerned with the development of theoretical and computational techniques in dynamical systems theory that can be used to assess and predict the performance of “realistic” ocean models. This project proposes the use of dynamical systems techniques as a metric that allows one to establish the performance of complex, nonlinear partial differential equations that are used to model a wide range of behavior and phenomena in the ocean. Thus this promising approach should provide crucial information relevant to the mathematical and computational modeling that will directly impact many of society’s pressing issues, such as sustainability, climate change and environmental impact.
