IDCE 357 - Research Seminar in Dynamic Environmental Modeling

Much environmental assessment, planning and regulation is now based on dynamical modeling (computer models that simulate pollution transport leading to human exposures and the potential consequences of such exposures over time or which simulate important aspects of ecological systems). The effective use of appropriate models and the critical interpretation of model results are key activities in environmental policy. In this seminar we will survey common applications of models, address key issues in the interpretation of model results, install, test and apply models that have been used in recent public-policy evaluations, and perform some model construction. Basic computer literacy will be assumed and individually performed computer projects will be a substantial portion of the required work, but extensive computer-science study is not a prerequisite.
