Objectivos Generales

Students are expected to acquire the basic knowledge of environmental modelling, with the intention of being able to develop or use that type of models in their application to environmental problems; giving, in addition, a theoretical and practical view of modelling and simulation techniques, from a conceptual perspective and focusing in the understanding of the involved processes and computer resources needs.

Objectivos Específicos

Conocimientos

  1. Fundamentals for the development of models of environmental systems.
  2. Conceptualization of transport processes in atmosphere and hydrosphere.
  3. Programming and simulation of these transport processes.
  4. General procedures that characterize the credibility (validation and verification) of a model are analysed.

Habilidades

  1. Performing numerical experiments using environmental models provided by the lecturer, or public domain software.
  2. Reproducing some basic tests used for validation of environmental models.
  3. Analyzing and represent scientific data.

Competencias

  1. Environmental modelling in atmosphere.
  2. Environmental modelling in hydrosphere.
  3. Solving selected problems in computational environmental modelling.

Metodología docente

Theory classes building up concepts in a structured method and setting out the commitment required for their practical application. The classes will give the present state of the art of environmental modeling, as well as a perspective of the future trends. Laboratory classes will be focused on the application of environmental models in order to consolidate concepts, skills and competencies.

Método de evaluación

The subject is developed through the combination of presential classes with the participation of the students, and the individual or grouped work. The attendance to joint classes is an important element in the evaluation process, which is made by the execution and defence of works. As well as an exam that assesses the theoretical knowledge acquired during the course.
