Course Graph

Prerequisite flow into the course, and dependencies flow out from it.

Co-requisites are treated as prerequisite links, and equivalent or cross-listed courses are merged into shared course nodes. The simplified view shows one prerequisite level above the course and one dependency level downstream.

Description

Catalog description

An introduction to the geography of Earth's fluid ocean and the physics that govern it. Topics include fundamental physical variables and their distribution, air/sea interaction, water masses and their formation, large-scale ocean dynamics, equatorial and coastal physical oceanography, and interactions between physical, chemical, and biological processes in the ocean. Participation in a single-day oceanographic cruise is expected.
