Professor Barbaro Recently Featured on the SIAM Homepage
Dr. Alethea Barbaro was recently featured on the SIAM publication’s homepage, for a recent joint article with researchers, Björn Birnir and Sam Subbey. The article, titled “The Capelin: Key to Predicting Global Warming Effects on Arctic Environments,” focuses on the capelin, a small fish that lives in Arctic and subarctic waters. Their primary research focuses on simulating and predicting the migration routes and life cycles of three of the several stocks of capelin worldwide.
