Fractals and Forests

UA Desert Lab

Fractals are one of nature's most intriguing phenomena—we look at fractals, trees, global warming, and throw in some art, too.

University of Arizona research ecologist Brian Enquist will share how measuring one tree using fractal mathematical formulas can be used to calculate carbon impact of a whole forest, because in fact they are not random—forests are mathematically structured. Then, Tumamoc Artist in Residence Paul Mirocha will lead a session drawing trees using Mandelbrot formulas and other fractal imaging. You will never think of a tree the same way again after this fascinating workshop._____________________________________________________________________________________Refund requests will be accepted up to three days prior to the workshop.Student discounts (50%) are available; please email Roseann Hanson with details of your school enrollment.
