He held research internships, e.g. at MIT and at NCAR (National Center for Atmospheric Research) in the United States, at the University of Hamburg in Germany, and at Monash University in Australia.

Gestalten in Science

The purpose of this talk is, by taking “Gestalt” as a key word, to perform philosophical reflections on science in a concrete manner.

As a concrete subject, I take the organization of cloud convection observed in a planetary scale of the atmosphere, especially focusing on a phenomena called the Madden-Julian oscillation. Philosophical reflections will be principally guided by Wittgenstein’s “Philosophische Untersuchungen”.

We strongly recommend a paper on a related topic by Jun-Ichi Yano: https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-03423299/document
