SDG Detail

GEOPHYS 213 : The Geophysical Environment

Undergraduate course

Project description

To introduce and provide a historical perspective of the physical insights into our earth, oceans and atmosphere. Special attention is placed on making the connections between the three components of the geophysical environment. We introduce students to the notion that the processes associated with these three components are coupled, and the underlying mathematical methods are often shared.
