Uncertainty: the most fundamental question in physics | Tim Palmer

Tim Palmer delves into his work on how uncertainty and chaos play out across weather systems, economics and the human brain. The science of uncertainty: how can we best predict the future? Watch the full talk at https://iai.tv/video/the-science-of-u... From quantum physics to climate change, the science of uncertainty can help us understand our chaotic world. Join Oxford Professor of Climate Physics Tim Palmer as he argues that the mathematics of uncertainty is vital to progress. #chaostheory #weatherforecasting #butterflyeffect Tim Palmer is an internationally renowned meteorologist and Professor at the University of Oxford. He works on the tough, crucial problems of uncertainty in our weather and climate, drawing on his background in fundamental physics to do so. He was appointed as CBE in the 2015 New Year’s Honours list for services to science and has won numerous other awards in recognition of his world-leading work. 00:00 Introduction 00:37 The primacy of doubt 01:33 Backstory 03:44 Quantum mechanics 05:11 The most fundamental question in physics 05:40 My dilemma 07:22 Michael Fish 08:30 Chaos theory 10:47 Weather forecasting 12:32 Calculating probability 13:10 Predicting hurricanes 14:47 Predictive humanitarian aid 16:00 Economic forecasting The Institute of Art and Ideas features videos and articles from cutting edge thinkers discussing the ideas that are shaping the world, from metaphysics to string theory, technology to democracy, aesthetics to genetics.
