Physical Oceanography

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2014-2015.

Covers thermohaline and wind-driven circulation and surface-ocean boundary-layer dynamics. Mathematical expressions for describing conservation of momentum, mass, and heat in a fluid are used to explain the ocean's responses to wind and buoyancy forcing.

When Offered Fall.
