Description

This course presents the science behind the forecast of global warming to enable the student to evaluate the likelihood and potential severity of anthropogenic climate change in the coming centuries. An overview of the physics of the greenhouse effect including comparisons with Venus and Mars; overview of the carbon cycle in its role as a global thermostat; predictions and reliability of climate model forecasts of the greenhouse world; an examination of the records of recent and past climates.
