Environmental models are simplified representations of complex physical systems. The implementation of any such model, as a computer simulator, involves further simplifications and approximations. The value of the resulting simulator, in giving scien... Read More about Assessing Model Adequacy.

Shape as an emergent property (2013)
Book Chapter

Shape is a ubiquitous property of our world. Inferences about it require ‘shape models’: probability distributions on shapes. The crucial property of any such shape model is the existence of long-range dependencies between boundary points. We look at... Read More about Shape as an emergent property.
