Some people asked me where the photo on the cover of the 4th edition of the MRES book was taken. Here is the story about it.
MATLAB® and LEGO® MINDSTORMS®
I am currently working on a MATLAB/LEGO® MINDSTORMS® course for undergraduate and graduate students, aiming to improve their skills to build efficient teams to solve typical problems in earth sciences in acquiring, processing and analyzing typical multispectral (visible, infrared, thermal), geophysical (seismic, magnetic) and geometric (2D, 3D) data.
MRES Exercise #4 Three-Dimensional Maps
This exercise is intended to help students to understand how to create maps from three-dimensional data.
MRES Exercise #3 Cycles and Filters
This exercise is intended to help students to understand how to detect cycles in a time series and design filters to eliminate individual cycles.
MRES Exercise #2 Uni- and Bivariate Statistics
This exercise is intended to help students to understand how to calculate basic statistical characteristics of a time series.

MRES 4th Edition Errata
The Errata File lists the known errors in the 4th edition of MATLAB Recipes for Earth Sciences (Springer 2015). The authors apologize for these errors, which were unintentional. The file is constantly updated on this webpage. Please let me know if you find any mistakes, misunderstandings in the text, or general suggestions for additions and extensions. No book is as good as its next edition!

MRES Exercise #1 Advanced Plotting
This exercise is intended to help students to understand advanced plotting with MATLAB.
MRES 2017 Shortcourses in Potsdam
I will teach two shortcourses on the MRES book in Potsdam this year. The spring courses will be held between 27 February and 3 March 2017 (in English, link to registration) and 3 and 7 April 2017 (in German, link to registration). The course introduces methods of data analysis in earth and environmental sciences using MATLAB, one of the leading software packages for the solution of mathematical problems.
