In this talk, I will discuss various aspects of approximation by radial basis functions on spheres. After a short introduction to the subject of scattered data approximation on spheres and optimal recovery, I will particularly talk about error analysis, a hybrid approximation scheme involving polynomials and radial basis functions and, if time permits, solving nonlinear parabolic equations on spheres.
