Geophysicist Jon Aurnou (Get to Know a Scientist!)

The video explores the nature of fluids, their unpredictable behavior, and the field of fluid dynamics. Dr. John Arno discusses his work on planetary fluid dynamics and Earth's magnetic field. Experiments demonstrate convection in rotating systems, linking core dynamics to weather patterns. Student projects in Dr. Arno's lab are highlighted, and the application of fluid dynamics to other planets is discussed. The video concludes with encouragement for students interested in the field.
