3.00 Credits
Understanding the role of scale in analysis of remote sensing data using GIS, focusing on analysis of landscape properties. Prerequisite: ES/ATS 413. (Same as ES 414.)
-
3.00 Credits
Advanced special topics: visualization of GIS and remote sensing data, landscape characterization (pattern vs. process), multitemporal analysis, aggregation of data types, developing an integrated GIS environment for performing complex spacetime modeling analyses, and land-atmosphere interactions. Prerequisites: ATS/ES 413. (Same as ES 415.)
-
3.00 Credits
This self-contained introductory course in atmospheric chemistry and air pollution is designed to provide seniors and graduate students the basics of atmospheric chemistry and air pollution concepts. Topics include air pollutants, air-pollution meteorology, atmospheric gases and aerosols, and atmospheric processes. This course will also develop the necessary fundamentals for those wishing to take advanced courses in the atmospheric chemistry/air pollution study area. (Same as ES 420). Prerequisites: PH 112 and CH 121 or consent of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
General aspects of thermodynamic and cloud physical processes occurring within the atmosphere; atmospheric statics and stability, saturation point analysis, aerosols, nucleation, and the behavior/growth of cloud particles and hydrometers. Prerequisites: MA 238, PH 112. (Same as ES 441.)
-
3.00 Credits
Fluid dynamics in the atmosphere. Coriolis accelerations, scale analysis, and appropriate approximations of the complete governing equations. Numerical analysis and interpretation of weather phenomena. Prerequisites: MA 238, PH 112. (Same as ES 451.)
-
3.00 Credits
Analysis, interpretation, and forecasting synoptic-scale and mesoscale phenomena, including air masses, frontal systems, cyclones, anti-cyclones, tropical cyclones, and associated mesoscale phenomena. Emphasis on the use of remotely sensed data from satellites, radars, and profilers using state-of-the-art workstations. Prerequisites: ATS 441, 451. (Same as ES 452.)
-
3.00 Credits
Detection and forecasting of atmospheric mesoscale phenomena including the structure and evolution of clouds, precipitation (including floods), thunderstorms and severe weather. Includes basics on instruments used to detect mesoscale phenomena, most notably satellite and radar. Course material is based mainly on computerized modules and related exercises. Prerequisites: ATS 441, 451. (Same as ES 454.)
-
3.00 Credits
Fundamentals of terrestrial atmospheric radiation. Specific topics include: solar radiation at the top of the atmosphere, radiative transfer equation, gaseous absorption, scattering by molecules and particles, band models, transmittance along an inhomogeneous path, and microwave radiative transfer. Prerequisites: MA 238, PH 112. (Same as ES 461.)
-
3.00 Credits
Legal environment of business including the ethical, social, political and technological aspects of that environment.
-
3.00 Credits
An analytical review of corporate ethics addressed from a legal and business standpoint. Focus on codes of ethics, integration of "integrity" into corporatecultures, top management commitment to ethics, civic involvement, employeremployee relations, consumer protection, and international business.
