How can you know the state of the atmosphere to perform a weather forecast? That is carried out by data assimilation algorithms today. How can you get insight into some area of space by scattering of waves or by remote sensing? The research area of "inverse problems" provides and develops tools and insight ...

Science, Politics, Networking ...

 

Science is important for society, it drives innovation. We need to provide a vivid and rich environment for science in universities, public research institutions and in industry.

 
 
     

Satellites
We employ satellites to determine the state of the atmosphere now as basis for the daily weather forecast ...

 

Algorithms
Data assimilation, tomo- graphy, inversion: we use mathematical tech- niques to gain insight into our world.
