Curriculum vitae

Mgr. Miloš Revallo, PhD.

The research in the field of space geophysics is focused on short-term forecast models for disturbed geomagnetic activity driven by solar energetic events, using advanced statistical methods (artificial neural networks). This kind of research concerns the space weather topic, with practical applications in the area of energetics, aviation and navigation systems.

The research in the field of geophysical fluid mechanics is related with theoretical geophysics and uses the methods of applied mathematics (the asymptotic methods for solution of partial differential equations). The aim of this research is to understand the nonlinear dynamics of convection, namely the formation and interaction of various types of instabilities in the Earth’s interior.
