Course Details
Here are the essential units for a Global Certificate in Ocean Modeling & Resource Management:
• Ocean Modeling Fundamentals: This unit will cover the basics of ocean modeling, including the governing equations, numerical methods, and model validation techniques. It will also introduce students to different types of ocean models and their applications.
• Physical Oceanography: This unit will delve into the physical properties and processes of the ocean, including temperature, salinity, density, circulation, waves, and tides. Students will learn how these properties and processes affect ocean modeling and resource management.
• Biogeochemical Cycles: This unit will explore the biogeochemical cycles of the ocean, such as carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and silica. Students will learn how these cycles interact with each other and with the atmosphere, and how they are affected by human activities.
• Ocean Resource Management: This unit will cover the principles and practices of ocean resource management, including the identification, assessment, and conservation of living and non-living resources. Students will also learn about the legal and institutional frameworks for ocean resource governance and the challenges and opportunities of sustainable ocean development.
• Climate Change and Ocean Modeling: This unit will examine the impacts of climate change on the ocean, such as sea-level rise, ocean acidification, and ocean warming. Students will learn how ocean modeling can help predict and adapt to these impacts and contribute to climate mitigation and adaptation strategies.
• Data Analysis and Visualization: This unit will teach students how to analyze and visualize ocean data using statistical and computational tools. Students will learn how to interpret and communicate the results of their analyses to different audiences.
• Integrated Ocean Management: This unit will introduce students to the concept of integrated ocean management, which involves coordinating and balancing the multiple uses and values of the ocean. Students will learn how to apply this approach to real
