University of Maryland GEOL 613 Geoscientific Modeling Entire Course

A model is a simplified representation of reality. Modeling is implicit or explicit in almost everything we do as geoscientists. Model construction, coding, and the concepts of parsimony vs complexity, robustness, validation, uncertainty, and the scientific interpretation of simulation results. Problem sets, independent study, and participatory discussion of modeling applications in the current literature.

Note: This entire course includes discussions, assignments, course projects, and exams.
