Course Title:
Numerical Modeling of Environmental Flows
Instructor:
Chow
Description:
Introduction to the philosophy and practice of numerical modeling of environmental flow processes. Topic will change each semester. Course of structured computer modeling assignments on a single topic in environmental flow modeling, supported by focused lectures and discussions on the physical processes and on the associated numerical analysis. Topics such as ocean outfalls, wave penetration in harbors, contaminant transport, flood and tide propagation in channels and data analysis of climate, air, and water quality observations

Berkeley Environmental Fluids Laboratory (BEFL)
Submitted by cmjones on February 23, 2007 - 1:53pm.Name of Research Center:
Berkeley Environmental Fluids Laboratory (BEFL)
Description:
The Environmental Fluid Mechanics group at UC Berkeley uses numerical, observational, and theoretical tools to study the movement of water and air in the natural environment. Research interests include the coastal ocean and estuaries, the atmospheric boundary layer, sediment transport, land-atmosphere interactions, numerical methods, turbulence, effects of density stratification, contaminant transport, groundwater flow, biological fluid mechanics, and the intersections of these and other topics. Within each of these research areas, fundamental processes of fluid flows are investigated.
