Mathematica Solution for Environmental Sciences

Whether it's for climate change prediction, alternative energy development, or pollution modeling, the Mathematica environmental sciences solution lets you work easily with any data (including data from Wolfram|Alpha), apply the most sophisticated computational techniques, and generate fully interactive models that are ideal for publishing or results verification.

Powerful computational abilities for large-scale environmental modeling

Diffusion of atmospheric pollution—accounting for wind, solar radiation, and chemical reactions between pollutants—using grid computation capabilities

Why Choose Mathematica

Ways to Use

Compare Mathematica to your current tools. Do they have these advantages?
Free-form linguistic input produces immediate results without the need for syntax »
Competitor note: Unique to Mathematica
Import experimental data, perform computations, and deliver results in one interactive document rather than working with several applications, making it easy to share data »
Competitor note: Excel, R, STATA, and other programs do not offer an integrated document environment
Integrated automatic report generation to document tasks you perform in Mathematica and instantly generate reports with graphics, text, and code, making it easy for others to verify your results »
Competitor note: Sage, Octave and other freeware do not support automatic report generation
Symbolic calculations improve the accuracy and reliability of environmental science models over solely numeric computations
Competitor note: R, STATA, Matlab, and other numerical systems do not have integrated symbolic functionality
Instantly create interactive modeling or data analysis tools without programming expertise »

Powerful symbolic statistical computation and built-in functions for all standard statistical distributions
Competitor note: Advanced symbolic computational capabilities are unique to Mathematica
Create highly customized, presentation-quality visualizations, including charts, bar charts, scatter plots, and many more »
Competitor note: SPSS requires explicit programming for customized charts
Sophisticated typesetting for chemical and mathematical equations, standard word processing, and interactive applications in a single document »
