Dicussion Paper

I've picked up a discussion paper on environmental modelling earlier today at 3.35 pm; and I have to submit this at 9 am the following morning. Here are the questions

Part A:
In no more than three pages, critically discuss the following set of statements providng examples where appropriate:
  1. Numerical Modelling is 2/3 science 1/3 art
  2. Reality is arbitrarily complex and all models are wrong?
  3. But wrong does not mean useless
Part B:
An oil and gas company has asked you to describe the modelling methodology you would adopt for examining cyclone induced dynamics on Australia's North West Shelf. In no more than 2 pages, detail your response.

You should include in your answer a discussion on relevant scales of motions, required model resolution and limitations to your methodology.

Waaaaaaa.... How to answer these in less than 24hrs??????
Lord help...
