The variability of the ecosystem dynamics has been studied considering climatological, interannually varying and future scenarios (surface and lateral) boundary condition, in order to start investigating the climate related long term variability. The Spring 2017 annual Networking Event will take place February 9th 2017, from 9:30am to 2:30pm. Modelling activities ranged from implementation of one- to three-dimensional models, carried out in order to understand the role of the physical structure (seasonal stratification/destratification cycle) and dynamics (advection/diffusion) in constraining/governing the structuring of the lower trophic levels (from nutrients and light to bacteria, phytoplankton and zooplankton) ecosystem. The seminar will provide an overview of the general characteristics of the coupled (circulation and biogeochemical dynamics) models implemented in order to simulate the environmental dynamics of the Adriatic Sea, a regional Mediterranean Sea basin characterized by very much contrasting physical and biogeochemical characteristics, ranging from truly coastal (shallow depth, large river input, meso to eutrophic) in the North, to truly open ocean (dense water formation, oligotrophic) in the South. Room: Bechtel Collaboratory.Modelling the coupled physical/biogeochemical dynamics of the Adriatic Sea Marco Zavatarelli Università di Bologna Location: CU Engineering Center, Discovery Learning Center (DLC). Than has a 4.0 GPA and is a double major in molecular, cellular and developmental biology, and chemistry and biochemistry. Olivier is also the author of a higher education course on fundamentals of drone engineering. in the Bechtel Collaboratory at the Discovery Learning Center in CU-Boulders engineering college at Regent Drive and Colorado Avenue. Today he is the founder of 3Dvistas, a company that researches, designs, builds and flies professional autonomous drones for a wide range of research and industry applications. The map to your left shows the relative locations of the Boulder Outlook Hotel (see Accommodations for hotel information) and the CU Engineering Center. He then watched the field mature to its present state, where he can safely and reliably fly autonomous multi-kilometer missions at the flick of a switch. During that time he actively participated in the emerging field, and crashed many drones while still ecstatic that they could fly at all. This was when MEMs flight sensors were in their infancy and had to be soldered by hand, and reliable flight controller software was only a wish and required many “hacks”. Seven years ago he caught the “drone” bug, and began building multirotors from scratch. He began the first half of his career as a technical and executive consultant in the area of computer networking and security, and then held a number of executive positions in the IT world domestically and abroad. degrees in Computer Science from the University of Colorado, Boulder. degree in Mathematics and Physics from Beloit College, and his M.S. We will also fly a nano drone, with onboard real time video transmitted to a wide screen TV.Ībout the presenter: Olivier Brousse received his B.S. To anchor the presentation we will bring a custom heavy lifter (seven foot span) octocopter. From there we will cover the many applications these new aerial robotic tools can be used for. To this end we will be “lifting the hood”, and further expose how drone engineering integrates both theoretical and practical concepts from the fields of Aerospace, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, along with Computer Science. Covering the field broadly will be the main objective, but we will not hesitate to drill down and touch on the basic principles and underlying technology necessary to make a drone fly. In this seminar we will present an overview of multirotor drone technology from an engineering perspective, from sensors to system components to flight controllers and software, and from theory to practice. Meanwhile the industrial market for drones has changed rapidly and dramatically in the past several years, with small professional drones on the industrial scene anticipated by some to reach over 100,000 vehicles in the coming years, and recreational drones well over a million. Unmanned aircraft systems are being heralded by some as the next “big thing”. The Collaboratory works with industry partners, public agencies, and other universities and colleges to transform our energy future.
