CHE 342 Atmospheric Engineering and Science

This course acts an introduction to foundational principles of physics, chemistry, and thermodynamics that occur in atmospheric processes. Students will explore governing mass and energy balances present in the atmosphere, and their application to fundamental weather, air quality, and climatological phenomena. Topics include atmospheric dynamics, cloud formation and microphysical behavior, radiative forcing, and chemistry in gas/condensed-phase systems.
