At Shark Wave, we use advanced data modeling and calculus-based algorithms to provide you with accurate predictions about shark migration and danger levels in waters around the world. You simply send us a location alongside when you need it and we do the rest! Our system integrates real-time data on various oceanic and environmental factors—such as water temperature, salinity, ocean currents, and prey availability—that influence shark movement patterns. By using calculus to analyze these dynamic conditions, we can create predictive models that update regularly, ensuring you have the latest information about where sharks are likely to be and where waters may be more dangerous.
On August 15, 2024, at 3:00 PM, data was shown that ocean temperatures near Cape Cod had risen due to a seasonal heat wave, while ocean currents are pushing warmer waters northward. Scientists knew from previous studies that a higher water temperature often correlated with increased shark presence, as it attracts prey like seals. We’ll use real-world data from these variables to calculate shark density in a specific area.
The following integration will give us a predicted density map, showing likely hotspots for sharks based on current environmental data. Such models update as real-time data feeds into our system, allowing users to see the most accurate predictions for shark density across specific waters.
At the age of twelve, in the sixth grade, I encountered a shark up close. In that split second, I learned firsthand that the ocean’s beauty can be just as daunting as it is captivating. The experience left me with more than a scar—it ignited a relentless drive to understand, predict, and ultimately warn others about these powerful creatures. This isn’t just about sharks; it’s about safeguarding those who love the ocean, those who seek adventure, and those who simply wish to know the risks they’re diving into.
My mission is clear: to create a platform that freely and accurately predicts shark migration and potential risk zones. I believe access to critical, potentially life-saving information should never come with a price tag. This isn’t a commercial endeavor; it’s a commitment to public safety and a promise to anyone who’s ever felt the pulse of the ocean.
The backbone of this platform is my passion for calculus. I’ve always been drawn to the elegance of math’s structures, especially as it applies to the natural world. Calculus, with its power to decipher movement and predict patterns, became my tool of choice for something bigger than a project—it’s my purpose. Every equation, every data point is a step closer to transforming a personal encounter into a shield for others.
This platform is a fusion of experience, passion, and knowledge, built to ensure that no one else has to face the unknown unprepared. Whether you’re a surfer, a swimmer, or someone who simply loves the ocean, I invite you to use this tool freely and explore the power of knowledge that calculus and data can offer in protecting our lives and our adventures.
If this platform saves even one life, then every hour of coding, every equation solved, and every ounce of effort will have been worth it. Thank you for joining me on this journey—not just to understand sharks but to make the ocean a safer place for us all.
