A Natural Choice: Mathematica's Role in Natural Resource Studies
Yu-Feng Lin, a hydrogeologist at the Illinois State Water Survey, is on a mission to develop a tool that gives scientists and decision-makers a quick estimation of groundwater recharge and discharge. He easily imports, combines, and computes geospatial data from various sources.
Lin says, "Mathematica can really help us with the computing power and with visualizing the outcome."
