Course Objectives
By the end of the course students will be able to:
- Understand different hydrometeorological datasets used to solve water related problems
- Retrieve and analyze different hydrometeorological datasets
- Work on a multi-disciplinary teams
- Formulate and work on solution of a hydrometeorological problem
Thıs course is intended to fit Civil Engineering undergraduate program.
This course is designed to introduce hydrometeorological datasets that are widely used in hydrological and meteorological applications.
At the end of the semester the students will gain the skill of being able to retrieve, analyze, and interpret such hydrometeorological datasets
Course Content
Introduction to remotely sensed and modeled hydrometeorological dataset; Retrieval and analysis of spatio-temporal hydrometeorological dataset; Analysis using recently released satellite remote sensing-based datasets, numerical weather prediction model-based datasets, and climate model-based datasets; Special emphasis on the differences between the estimated and the observed datasets.
