A comprehensive learning path for university students in atmospheric science to understand the chemical processes in the atmosphere. It covers the fundamental chemistry of the troposphere and stratosphere, including the roles of ozone, hydroxyl radical, NOx, SOx, VOCs, and aerosols, and how they interact in oxidation cycles and affect air quality and climate.
This advanced learning path guides oceanography students through the fundamental physical processes governing ocean dynamics. Starting with the equation of state and stratification, it progresses through Ekman transport, geostrophic currents, and wind-driven gyres, culminating in the global deep circulation and the overturning circulation. The path emphasizes the physics and mathematics underlying these phenomena.
This advanced learning path guides atmospheric science students through the physical principles governing atmospheric motion. It covers the fundamental equations, force balances, vorticity dynamics, and atmospheric waves, building from core physics and calculus prerequisites.
This learning path equips environmental science students with the knowledge to critically evaluate climate change response strategies. It covers climate science fundamentals, impacts, and the main categories of responses—mitigation, adaptation, and resilience—along with policy, technology, and carbon sequestration approaches. By the end, learners will be able to assess trade-offs and synergies among different strategies.
This learning path equips environmental science students with the knowledge and skills to assess climate change impacts across sea-level rise, extreme events, water resources, agriculture, health, and ecosystems. It builds from climate science fundamentals through impact assessment methods to synthesis and communication.
This learning path equips climate science students with the knowledge and skills to attribute observed climate changes to specific causes, such as greenhouse gas emissions, using methods like fingerprinting, model experiments, and statistical analysis. It covers essential statistics and climate modeling basics, observational data, uncertainty, and IPCC assessment practices.
This learning path guides climate science students through the fundamental structure and components of General Circulation Models (GCMs). Beginning with the governing equations of atmospheric and oceanic dynamics, it progresses through numerical methods, parameterizations, and Earth system components, culminating in an understanding of coupling and climate sensitivity. Designed for intermediate university students with basic calculus and programming knowledge.
This learning path introduces the fundamental principles and types of climate models, covering the hierarchy from simple energy balance models to complex Earth system models. It includes essential prerequisites in physics and mathematics, core concepts like parameterization and resolution, and culminates in understanding how models are evaluated and applied.
This learning path introduces high school students to the major climate changes in Earth's history, covering warm periods, ice ages, mass extinctions, abrupt climate change, and the Anthropocene. It begins with paleoclimatology basics and climate system fundamentals, then progresses through deep-time climate events to recent changes.
A foundational learning path for high school students interested in climate history, covering the principles of paleoclimatology and the use of ice cores, tree rings, and sediments as climate proxies. Learners will explore how these records are analyzed to infer past temperatures and understand ice ages and climate variability.
