| PHYS 221 - ENVIRONMENTAL PHYSICS |
|
Controversial environmental issues revolve around complicated scientific arguments. Therefore, we need to explore the concepts of mechanics, energy, thermodynamics, electromagnetic radiation, atmospheric processes and radioactivity to clarify these issues. The understanding of the fundamental concepts of physics is crucial to the study of natural processes such as global climate, greenhouse effect, ozone depletion, pollution, etc. This course also reviews the various alternative technologies that have been developed to produce energy and analyses their impact on the environment.
