The [course_title] course explains the role of dynamics in the general physics of the atmosphere that will be followed by the differences between modelling and approximation, and the observed large-scale phenomenology of the atmosphere. The course teaches you the basic equations and shows you the application of these equations to important problems and methodologies in meteorology and climate. Hadley circulation, atmospheric waves, tides, the super-rotation of Venus’ atmosphere, the generation of atmospheric turbulence, and stationary waves, etc. will be discussed in the course.
Assessment
This course does not involve any written exams. Students need to answer 5 assignment questions to complete the course, the answers will be in the form of written work in pdf or word. Students can write the answers in their own time. Each answer needs to be 200 words (1 Page). Once the answers are submitted, the tutor will check and assess the work.
