Students will analyze climate data, read primary scientific literature, examine the drivers of climate change, and investigate the fundamental Earth processes that are affected. We will also examine deep-time climate change and the geologic proxies that Earth scientists use to understand climate change on many different time scales. This course is appropriate for students with little to no scientific background but is geared toward students who are considering a science major. Two 90-minute lectures per week. Approach: Quantitative Methods (QM), Quantitative Readiness Required (QR), Scientific Investigation (SI); Haverford: C: Physical and Natural Processes (C), Quantitative (QU) Enrollment Cap: 50; If the course exceeds the enrollment cap the following criteria will be used for the lottery: Freshmen, Sophomore |
