Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Same as for the associated lecture course "280329 VO Dynamics of the Atmosphere 1"
Assessment and permitted materials
The grading system is based on: i) homework and blackboard performance; ii) an intermediate exam; iii) a final exam.
i) The final exam accounts for the remaining 25% of the final grade (exam points).
ii) The intermediate exam accounts for the remaining 25% of the final grade (exam points 1).
iii) The final exam accounts for the remaining 25% of the final grade (exam points 2).
A minimum of 50% from the exercise points, 20% from exam points 1, 20% from exam points 2 are required. To pass the course successfully, 50% of the total number of points (exercise points + exam points 1 & 2) is required.Exercise points:
At the beginning of each exercise session, a sheet is circulated on which students can tick what problems they solved. During the session, students are asked to come to the blackboard to present a problem, the presentation is evaluated with a weighting factor between 0.0 and 1.0.At the end of the course, exercise points are calculated as (A/B)*C, where:
A = sum of points gained by ticking problems.
B = total points available.
C = mean weighting factor of the blackboard performances.
In the end, that exercise session with the least number of points is not included in the computation ("void result").Grading key:
00.0-49.9%: 5, 50.0-62.9%: 4, 63.0-74.9%: 3, 75.0-87.9%: 2, 88.0-100.0%: 1
i) The final exam accounts for the remaining 25% of the final grade (exam points).
ii) The intermediate exam accounts for the remaining 25% of the final grade (exam points 1).
iii) The final exam accounts for the remaining 25% of the final grade (exam points 2).

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
Students following this course, will learn to understand and to apply the fundamental mathematical and physical concepts of geophysical fluid dynamics related to meteorology.
Examination topics
Exercise problems will be solved by the students at home. During the exercise session the problems will be presented by students at the blackboard and discussed in class.
