| Crosslisting:
ENVS 292 |
Weekly field trips, computer and/or laboratory exercises will allow us to see how climate and oceans function today and in the past. We will use data sets from international organizations to examine what we know about past climates. There may be an opportunity to use a climate model, En-ROADS, with a community group to investigate what can be done to reduce greenhouse gases input to the atmosphere. Although this course is offered pass/fail, participants are expected to maintain a grade of B- or better to pass. |
