AES 615 Earth Systems Modeling

Credits: (3-0) 3

This course provides the background for environmental modeling using a “Systems Thinking” approach. The course will cover: radiation balance, climate feedback mechanisms, biological, ecological and hydrologic systems as well as systems-based modeling examples applied to select non-environmental problem domains. Course will include familiarization of systems modeling using the STELLA modeling package. Students will also collaborate to develop components of a larger modeling project.

Notes: This course is cross-listed with CEE 615.
