Professor Dr. Thomas Stemler

Biography

Thomas Stemler's research focuses on understanding complex systems, particularly within the domains of dynamical systems theory and complex systems theory. He is particularly interested in addressing real-world challenges through the development of mathematical methods and algorithms tailored to specific problems, especially in climatology, ocean dynamics, and traffic systems. After obtaining his MSc and PhD from Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany, in the fields of Physics, he joined the University of Western Australia in 2007 as a postdoctoral researcher. His work at UWA includes significant contributions to increasing state estimation and forecasting within dynamical systems, with applications in weather forecasting. He has held a teaching and research position since 2009 and is a member of the Complex Systems Group within the Department of Mathematics and Statistics. His research is multi-disciplinary, leveraging modern computing, data analytics, and simulation techniques, and he has been involved in various funded projects aimed at improving infrastructure and resource management, including collaborations with industry through projects like the ARC Research Hub for Transforming Energy Infrastructure.
