NPI and PI: The students know the basic structure and constituents of the
atmosphere. Apart from the general laws of gases they understand the basic physical and chemical processes in the atmosphere and how they influence the local, regional and global climate. Students can describe the anthropogenic impacts on fundamental atmospheric processes on a quantitative basis. They can explain transport and dispersion processes of substances in the atmosphere and exchange mechanisms between the atmosphere and the other parts of the geo-biosphere. In addition they understand the radiation and energy budgets driving the atmosphere and how they can be modified by anthropogenic activities. They can draw the fundamental theories of climate change and its natural and man-made forcings.
