CLIM 751 Predictability and Prediction of Weather and Climate -- Concepts and Phenomenology
Dr. J. Shukla (jshukla at gmu dot edu), 105 Research Hall
Dr. Jim Kinter (ikinter at gmu dot edu), 284 Research Hall
Lectures:
Mon, 10:30 am - 1:10 pm, Research Hall 121
Course Description:
The course covers predictability and seamless prediction of weather and climate for timescales ranging from days to decades. Studies limitations to predictability due to chaos, and possible sources of predictability due to slowly varying surface boundary conditions produced by interactions among atmospheres, ocean and land system. Discusses predictability of droughts and floods, monsoons, ENSO, decadal variations and climate change.
