Introduction to Weather and Climate
This online course addresses some of the most immediately relevant and interesting areas of Earth System Science—weather, climate and how both of those affect people and are affected by people. The interactions with course material and among course participants will lead to enhanced understanding of science concepts and inquiry-based instruction.
