Advanced Methods – Modeling Physical Systems in the Climate (MPSC)5 ECTS
(englische Bezeichnung: Advanced Methods – Modeling Physical Systems in the Climate)

Lehrveranstaltungen:

• • Advanced Methods:
    (Masterseminar, 2 SWS, Zeit und Raum n.V.)

Empfohlene Voraussetzungen:

n/s

Inhalt:

Selected methods related to the numerical modeling of the climate system

Lernziele und Kompetenzen:

The students

• understand the major principles of climate modeling;

• put emphasis on model evaluation and uncertainty, and therefore appreciate the role of in-situ measurements;

• know the strengths and weaknesses of models for a correct interpretation of model results;

• and understand the importance of different space/time scales for model formulations and limitations;

A series of practical exercises builds on each other throughout the course. Results of these exercises will develop from individual contributions and small-group work, and from a discussion with the whole group. Course attendance is therefore compulsory.
