Ocean-climate interaction through geologic time

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: GG7009

This course introduces students to the role of the ocean in long term climate change. It will cover different types of ocean-climate interactions going back from the Eocene 40 million years ago to today and into the future. Students will learn what the role is of climate, the geography of the continents and ice-sheets on the ocean circulation. The course will describe how the ocean in turn affects climate by transporting heat around the globe and taking up or releasing carbon dioxide. Learning will be facilitated through lectures, exercises, demonstrations, group discussions, literature reviews, and presentations.

Behörighet

Admission to the course requires knowledge equivalent to a bachelor's degree, which includes at least 60 credits in geology or earth science. English B / English 6 or equivalent.
