The [course_title] course teaches the concepts of physics that govern the circulation of the ocean and atmosphere. You will learn about the characteristics of the atmosphere, Earth’s radiation budget, the equation of the state for the dry and moist air, Convection in water, Potential temperature, moist convection in the air, Equations of motion for non-rotating fluids, Thermal wind, and more. Shortly, the course covers the processes that control the climate of the planet.
