CONTENTS
Lecture times: TR 11-1230
In this course, we will look at many important aspects of the circulation
of the atmosphere and ocean, from length scales of meters to thousands of
km and time scales ranging from seconds to years. We will assume familiarity
with concepts covered in course 12.003 (Physics of the Fluid Earth). In the
early stages of the present course, we will make somewhat greater use of math
than did 12.003, but the math we will use is no more than that encountered
in elementary electromagnetic field theory, for example. The focus of the
course is on the physics of the phenomena we will discuss.
The assessment will be in three parts (with weight toward final grade):
1. Homework-five homework assignments, handed out approximately
every two weeks and on material covered in the previous 2 weeks (40%).
2. Two mid-term quizzes (10% each)
3. A final, closed book, exam (40%)
There is no set text-notes will be handed out at each class and references
for background or further reading will be pointed out wherever I think they
will be useful.
