Intermediate Data Science and Climate Science

Module code: PA2606

Understanding our changing climate requires more than observations alone—it requires the ability to analyse, interpret and communicate complex data. In this module, you'll combine climate science with data science, learning how researchers use environmental datasets to investigate climate processes and address some of the most pressing global challenges.

Topics include: 

• Earth's climate system and atmospheric processes
• Climate observations, satellites and environmental datasets
• Evidence for climate change and long-term climate trends
• Databases and scientific data management
• SQL and data querying techniques
• Data ethics, integrity and responsible use of data
