OCEA 2021

Tools & Concept in Ocea Sci II

Lec 01 and Tut T01 selected

Students gain practical insights into oceanographic concepts introduced in OCEA 2001/2002 through lab exercises. Labs focus on particle dynamics and life in the ocean and involve data acquisition and analysis to develop quantitative skills. At the end of the course, students observe a mesocosm to synthesize concepts from both OCEA 2020.03 and OCEA 2021.03. Students will continue to use the 'R' programming language.
