Argomenti del programma: Module I (Atmosphere) This module provides a comprehensive introduction weather climate modeling, covering both their theoretical foundations and practical applications. Students will explore the mathematical and physical principles underlying atmospheric models, from dynamical cores to parameterization schemes.
