Atmosphärisches Wasser

The module offers fundamental knowledge of physical processes and methodologies related to the atmospheric water cycle and its relevance in the context of climate change, e.g. water vapor fluxes and pathways, cloud microphysical processes, precipitation. Students get the competence to assess relevant aspects related to atmospheric water transport and availability, water use efficiency and cloud – albedo feedbacks as well as to apply IT-based approaches.

1. Weekly exercises in form of data analyses and visualization (30%) 2. Submission of a project (70%) Submission encompass 8-10 pages including approx. 2000-3000 words. A group submission is scheduled. Individual grading can be achieved according to the uploaded program code.
