TC 8.3. Modelling and Control of Environmental Systems
Welcome to TC 8.3. We deal with the monitoring, modelling and control of environmental systems with the aim of designing methodologies and tools to support the development and implementation of sustainable, cost-effective and socially acceptable decision-making processes, in a changing climate and a growing anthropic impact on environment.
Environmental systems considered include air (at the global, regional and local scale), land (forests, biomasses, soil contamination, etc.), water resource (surface and ground waters, marine and coastal waters) and renewable energy (sun, wind, bioenergy, biofuels, hydrogen, etc.) systems. Approaches comprise a wide spectrum of methodologies and related IT infrastructures. Starting from traditional non-linear dynamic modelling and control techniques, they comprise optimization, participatory modelling, integrated assessment, data assimilation, machine learning methods, and decision support systems.
