What will I learn?
This Environmental Physics Course equips you with hands-on methods to measure surface energy, soil heat storage, and water balances over brief times. Master calculations for radiation, sensible and latent heat fluxes, soil temperature shifts, and evapotranspiration using straightforward equations, actual parameter values, and basic models. Plus, build skills in evaluating uncertainties and reporting results clearly for trustworthy, shareable outcomes.
