Title:

    Stealing autumn colors

Presenter(s)/Author(s):



Abstract:


    Natural autumn coloring is a complex phenomenon to simulate because autumn coloring proceed differently in time and in space both within a leaf and within a tree. This is because the sunlight that each leaf receives, temperatures, and other weather conditions can affect its coloring speed. For examples, each leaf in a tree may interfere other leaves to receive the sunlight. In addition to these natural factors, the speed of chemical reactions in a tree will affect the speed of the coloring. Thus it is very difficult to simulate an autumn coloring in computer.
