-
1.00 - 12.00 Credits
Basic and applied research topics in remote sensing of earth resources, coastal processes, estuarine productivity, ocean dynamics and climatic effects presented by University students, faculty and guest speakers. Stresses advanced data acquisition and spectral and spatial image analysis techniques. RESTRICTIONS: May be repeated for credit when topics vary.
-
3.00 Credits
An advanced economics perspective on the major challenges of climate change. For each topic covered, the course discusses economic theory, current developments, and methodological approaches. Topics will include climate impacts and adaptation, including current approaches in climate econometrics; mitigation pathways, carbon taxes, and cap & trade systems, discussing computational and analytical modeling approaches; firm behavior, including technology adoption and learning; and international coordination problems, with applications of game theory. Read and discuss recent research, and lab assignments to develop skills in analyzing data and using models.
-
3.00 Credits
Complete an eco-entrepreneurship practicum focused on solving an environmental problem confronting society through technology commercialization. Involves working to develop a new and uniquely valuable solution to the problem as well as a viable new venture. Will typically include participation in the REEF@UD program. RESTRICTIONS: Students are typically participants in the REEF@UD program. Instructor approval required.
-
4.00 Credits
The material covered includes kinematics and dynamics of fluids with emphasis on coastal and ocean flows; governing equations; viscous flows; flows on a rotating planet; flows with variable density; boundary layers; transport, diffusion and mixing in the oceans and coastal zones; simple models; and turbulence.
-
3.00 Credits
Examines citizens' beliefs and values, voluntary environmental groups and the ways in which individuals and groups affect environmental policy. Shows how research in areas such as environmental sociology and ecological anthropology can inform policy.
-
3.00 Credits
General principles of wave mechanics, kinematics and dynamics. Applications to surface gravity waves, acoustic waves, Electromagnetic waves and large scale geophysical waves. PREREQ: MEEG690
-
3.00 Credits
Couples Lectures and hands-on exercises to introduce students to experimental methods and bioinformatics analysis in systems biology, showing how global analysis of omics data improves understanding of biological systems. Covers three units: (i) experimental techniques; (ii) genomics and transcriptomics data analysis; and (iii) proteomics and pathway/network data analysis.
-
3.00 Credits
Overview of the evolution, anatomy, physiology, and ecology of chondrichthyan fishes (sharks, skates, rays, and chimaeras) with an emphasis on their unique life history strategies and ecosystem roles. Management and conservation issues facing these fishes will also be addressed. PREREQ: MAST 427.
-
3.00 Credits
Basic PERL programming for biologists doing bioinformatics research with no experience in computer programming. Teaches PERL syntax enabling editing and trouble-shooting existing PERL programs/modules without writing new programs/scripts. Uses Biowolf parallel computing cluster at DBI. Goal is proficiency with computers from command-line, unix-based, terminal interface.
-
3.00 Credits
Teaches bioinformatic methods used to link genomic/proteomic sequence features to mechanisms of environmental adaptations or metabolic systems organization. For graduate students and advanced undergraduates applying basic informatic approaches/computational tools to research. Expectation of some programming experience. Computational tools include: PERL, PYTHON, R, and MatLab.
