課程概述

Feedbacks between land and atmosphere play a central role in the interactive functioning of the Earth's climate. The goal of this course is to understand the essential aspects of roles of land processes in the climate systems. Topics covered include: (1) basics of terrestrial surface energy, water and carbon balances, (2) ecohydrology, and (3) land use and land cover changes. Students will read several critical papers in these topics, and will also learn to design, perform, and analyze numerical climate experiments/outputs with a land surface model and climate model for their final project. 

課程目標
 At the end of the semester, the students are expected to explore the impacts of urbanization, deforestation, afforestation, and irrigation on the atmosphere and climate. They will need to know how the climate models can be used to answer these science questions, and they will learn how to design numerical experiments and interpret results from the NCAR climate model.  
課程要求
 This is a lecture and discussion course with significant interactions. Students can propose the hypotheses, which integrate the land processes and climatology, and use the model to test the proposed ideas in the final project. Students will lead and participate in literature (papers or book chapters) discussions in terrestrial and global hydrology. Each student will be responsible for leading one discussion during the semester.
