701-1216-00L | Numerical Modelling of Weather and Climate | 4 KP | 3G | C. Schär, J. Vergara Temprado, M. Wild | |
Kurzbeschreibung | The course provides an introduction to weather and climate models. It discusses how these models are built addressing both the dynamical core and the physical parameterizations, and it provides an overview of how these models are used in numerical weather prediction and climate research. As a tutorial, students conduct a term project and build a simple atmospheric model using the language PYTHON. | ||||
Lernziel | At the end of this course, students understand how weather and climate models are formulated from the governing physical principles, and how they are used for climate and weather prediction purposes. | ||||
Inhalt | The course provides an introduction into the following themes: numerical methods (finite differences and spectral methods); adiabatic formulation of atmospheric models (vertical coordinates, hydrostatic approximation); parameterization of physical processes (e.g. clouds, convection, boundary layer, radiation); atmospheric data assimilation and weather prediction; predictability (chaos-theory, ensemble methods); climate models (coupled atmospheric, oceanic and biogeochemical models); climate prediction. Hands-on experience with simple models will be acquired in the tutorials. | ||||
Skript | Slides and lecture notes will be made available at http://www.iac.ethz.ch/edu/courses/master/modules/numerical-modelling-of-weather-and-climate.html | ||||
Literatur | List of literature will be provided. | ||||
Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Prerequisites: to follow this course, you need some basic background in atmospheric science, numerical methods (e.g., "Numerische Methoden in der Umweltphysik", 701-0461-00L) as well as experience in programming. Previous experience with PYTHON is useful but not required. | ||||
701-1232-00L | Radiation and Climate Change | 3 KP | 2G | M. Wild | |
Kurzbeschreibung | This lecture focuses on the prominent role of radiation in the energy balance of the Earth and in the context of past and future climate change. | ||||
Lernziel | The aim of this course is to develop a thorough understanding of the fundamental role of radiation in the context of Earth's energy balance and climate change. | ||||
Inhalt | The course will cover the following topics: Basic radiation laws; sun-earth relations; the sun as driver of climate change (faint sun paradox, Milankovic ice age theory, solar cycles); radiative forcings in the atmosphere: aerosol, water vapour, clouds; radiation balance of the Earth (satellite and surface observations, modeling approaches); anthropogenic perturbation of the Earth radiation balance: greenhouse gases and enhanced greenhouse effect, air pollution and global dimming; radiation-induced feedbacks in the climate system (water vapour feedback, snow albedo feedback); climate model scenarios under various radiative forcings. | ||||
Skript | Slides will be made available | ||||
