Course Descriptions - Ecosystems Modeling of Marine and Freshwater Environments ENGM 6680   Ecosystems Modeling of Marine and Freshwater Environments
CREDIT HOURS: 3
Students develop and apply mathematical models of marine and freshwater ecosystems to study biological production, biogeochemical cycling etc. Lectures provide theoretical background for coupling nutrient and plankton dynamics, including parameterizing biological processes and physical effects. Computer sessions provide hands-on modelling experience. Students also critique literature and conduct an independent research project.
