Global Carbon Monitoring Systems
Introduction to the myriad of ways we measure global greenhouse gas emissions, from ubiquitous ground sensors to low-earth orbit satellites. Explore how new technologies are revolutionizing our ability to monitor global energy flows, track progress on emissions reduction goals, and enable new policy approaches to addressing climate change. Only one the following may be counted: Petroleum and Geosystems Engineering 383 (Topic: Global Carbon Monitoring Sys), 383 (Topic 79), Earth Energy Engineering 382K, Subsurface Energy Engineering 382K. Three lecture hours a week for one semester.
