課程概述

• This course provides a solid foundation in climate change science, including the physical basis of the climate systems, the future climate projection, and the potential impacts of climate change on the environment and human society.
• Students not in Atmospheric Sciences Major are highly welcome. We will introduce the basic concepts of the climate system
• The student will read and present selected sections of IPCC AR6, as well as the related literatures, to understand the current status of climate change research. 

課程目標
• To give the students solid understanding to the basic science and recent advances in climate change research
• To enable the students to summarize and present the literatures on climate change science and/or impact assessment. 
課程要求
