CEE 505 Environmental Modeling

This course introduces students to the art and science of modeling environmental systems. Students will learn the mathematical representation of various processes including advection, dispersion, mass-transfer, reactions, and population dynamics. Lectures will help students learn how to translate processes occurring in natural and engineered systems into model components. Labs will provide students with hands-on experience in the design and construction of working models using computerized spreadsheets and programming languages. Applications will be drawn from a range of environmental issues including water flow, contaminant transport, population dynamics, and natural resource management.
