Key themes in environmental science and engineering will be show-cased, with examples - from equator to the poles - including atmospheric processes and climate change, water quality, energy resources and urban development, with the amazing technologies use ...
The objective of this course is to apply thermodynamic principles to understand the role of water in the Earth System. The aim is to provide a broad conceptual framework for understanding the thermodynamics of oceans and atmospheres, so material can be int ...
The course provides an introduction to the physical and chemical processes that govern the atmospheric dynamics at small and large scales. The basis is laid for an in depth understanding of our atmospheric environment and the climate system. ...
The main objective is to present important atmospheric processes from the local to global scales. The course will start with cloud processes, continue to synoptic phenomena like extratropical cyclones and fronts, to finally cover numerical modeling at the ...
