Description
Survey of the physical science of climate change, impacts on the built environment, and climate adaptation in engineering. Greenhouse gases, global warming, paleoclimatology, and Earth system responses. Climate change impacts on structural, water, transportation, and energy systems. Climate vulnerability assessment, examples of design adaptation.
Conditions and arrangements
- Also offered at the undergraduate level, with different requirements, as ENVE 4200 , for which additional credit is precluded.
