GEOG 283 - Terrestrial Ecosystem Ecology and the Atmosphere

Type of Course: Lecture, Discussion
Explores biophysical controls on energy, water, and carbon exchanges between land surfaces and the atmosphere. Examines how biogeography, vegetation physiology, and local to global climates regulate land-atmosphere exchanges, which then feedback on biogeography and climate. The course integrates biophysical, biogeochemical, and ecosystem dynamical processes active in shaping the terrestrial biosphere. Students will also be exposed to methods of land surface and ecosystem process modeling.
