atmospheric and surface/subsurface water flows. Computer
modeling assignments using Matlab, discussion of physical
processes and associated numerical analysis. Topics will
include finite difference techniques, numerical stability,
iterative solutions, advection/diffusion and wave equations,
contaminant transport, effects of stratification, and
turbulence modeling, among others.
