This learning path equips students in hydrology and climate science with the knowledge to analyze climate-water cycle interactions. It covers fundamental hydrological physics, the terrestrial branch of the water cycle, and the climate drivers that influence water availability and extremes. The path progresses from core concepts to advanced applications, emphasizing the physical basis of climate-hydrology linkages.
This learning path equips economics students with the knowledge to apply economic models to climate change, covering foundational climate science, economic concepts, and integrated assessment models. It progresses from basic principles to advanced applications like cost-benefit analysis and policy design.
This learning path equips students in policy and environmental science with the knowledge to understand and analyze international and national climate policy frameworks. It begins with essential climate science, progresses through the architecture of the UNFCCC, Kyoto Protocol, and Paris Agreement, and concludes with national policy instruments and climate justice considerations.
This learning path equips graduate students in climate modeling with the knowledge and skills to apply downscaling techniques. It covers both dynamical and statistical downscaling, bias correction, and regional climate modeling, grounded in climate modeling basics and statistics.
This learning path equips climate science students with the statistical and programming skills needed to analyze climate data.
