ATOC 5051: Introduction to Physical OceanographyOr, Notions for the Motions of the Oceans.This is a core course for graduate students covering the basic tools needed for oceanography. Observational, dynamical, numerical, and descriptive methods are discussed and used to get a sense of the historical and contemporary understanding of the motions of the oceans. Baylor taught this class in Fall 2007, Fall 2008, and Spring 2010. The class assignments are in the forms of short papers. Proceedings volumes of the best of these papers are available for Fall 2007 and Fall 2008 (email Baylor for access). | |

ATOC 6020: Oceanography SeminarOr, The Ocean left Colorado 60 Million years ago, but Oceanography didn't!This is a weekly seminar covering topics in oceanography and ocean-focused climate science. Presentations will feature campus and Boulder scientists on recent and important developments in ocean science. University of Colorado graduate students can enroll in the ATOC 6020 seminar for 1 credit per semester, but participation is not limited to enrolled students: all ATOC students (graduate students and undergraduate minors), faculty, researchers, Boulder-area oceanographers, and alumni are encouraged to participate. | |
