 nData Rich Modelling Across the Scale: A Case Study with Soil \n\nNo matte
 r at what scale one looks\, modern environmental modelling is a data rich 
 endeavour if we are building mathematical models that are truly scientific
 ally relevant with as strong predictive power as possible. This is true wh
 en we model soil processes on the pore scale where models are validated us
 ing 3D data for pore scale structural information using X-ray Computed Tom
 ography and 2D pore scale information about soil chemistry using XRF and S
 EM-EDX.\n\nHowever\, these models need to be translated to the field\, cat
 chment\, regional etc. scale where an extra layer of data intensiveness en
 ters as one needs to account for regional soil\, atmosphere and climate he
 terogeneities. Thus\, in addition to adding computing power to solve the e
 nvironmental problems at all scales\, we also need modelling technologies 
 to translate the information across the scales. I will show as part of thi
 s talk a case study how I have done this to address problems of plant-soil
  interaction. I will also briefly highlight how the same modelling methodo
 logies can be applied to a much wider range of problems\; particularly hum
 an biomedical problems.
