| Inhalt | Current climate change is altering many physical, biological and human systems in the earth-atmosphere system. With regard to the near future, projected climate change is the greatest challenge for mankind. The topics of the course will provide an interdisciplinary overview of observations, analyses, simulations and interpretations of current and projected climate change and its consequences at regional and global scales. Amongst others the following topics are covered: - Climate system as part of the earth system; - Overview about the facets of current and projected climate change; - Impacts of global and regional climate change on physical, biological and human systems; - Mitigation and adaptation strategies; - Climate Engineering; - Sustainability and climate. |
| Lernziele | The students - deepen their knowledge on current global and regional climate change; - extend their knowledge on anthropogenic influence causing current climate change; - develop solid skills for the objective interpretation und assessment of the changes associated with the projected climate change in physical, biological and human systems; - analyse and evaluate possibilities for the application of mitigation und adaptation strategies. |
