Education facts
Code: MO8007
The course deals with numerical methods for solving the hydrodynamic equations. The course includes: • finite differences in time and space of the hydrodynamic equations • analysis of finite differential methods limitations • semi-implicit and semi-Lagrangian schemata • iterative methods for solving Laplace and Poissonekvationerna • alternating grid for shallow water equations in two dimensions • nonlinear advektionstermer • spectral coordinates for global atmospheric circulation models
Entry requirements
Knowledge corresponding to Atmospheric Physics and Chemistry, 30 HECs (MO4000) or Meteorology I, 15 HECs (MO8001) and Meteorology II, 7.5 HECs (MO8002). Also required is knowledge equivalent to English B/6.
Education offerings
Each offering has its own dates and conditions. Closed offerings are retained as history and do not mean that a new application is open.
