Prerequisits for Admission to the Examination:
Work on written exercises, demonstration of exercise solution in tutorials. Compulsory attendance of practical exercise.

Graded oral examination

Inhalt
Course Content:
Diabatic heating (e.g. latent heat release and cloud formation, radiative forcing), zonally averaged circulation, Lorenz energy cycle, longitudinally dependent time-averaged flow (stationary Rossby waves, jetstreams and storm tracks), low-frequency variability (Climate Regimes, Annular Modes, SST Anomalies), anthropogenic climate change

Learning Outcomes:
Students obtain advanced knowledge in stratospheric and tropospheric physics and dynamics and the effects of climate change. They are able to apply mathematical methods to solve physical problems in atmospheric physics and dynamics in practical exercises. Furthermore they present and critically discuss recent scientific literature to deepen the understanding of climate variability and climate change
