SC-233 Climate Science: Understanding our Changing Climate Credits: 3 Prerequisite(s): BY-109 or permission of the instructor Course Type(s): NS, SUS Climate Change is arguably the most important problem of the 21st century. Climate Science Understanding Our Changing Climate provides students with a quantitatively rigorous treatment of basic climate science as well as a scientific exploration of impacts caused by human-mediated climate change. This course aims to cover climate science from an explicitly interdisciplinary perspective, because climate science depends on chemistry, physics, biology, mathematics, computer modeling and geology for complete understanding of the climate system and because workable climate solutions are almost always interdisciplinary in nature. Climate modeling and assessment of future climate conditions and risks will be stressed.
