BSc (120 credit hour) Major in Physics combined with a Diploma in Meterology - Light Scattering, Radiative Transfer, and Remote Sensing PHYC 4570   Light Scattering, Radiative Transfer, and Remote Sensing
CREDIT HOURS: 3
The equations of radiative transfer through the atmosphere will be developed and used. Special topics include transfer of infrared radiation. Mie scattering, absorption by atmospheric gases and aerosols, transfer through clear and cloudy atmospheres. Also remote sensing techniques and radiative transfer models are covered.
