Applied Climatology Course

What will I learn?
You will build a foundation in climate science, covering Earth's energy balance, atmospheric composition, and global climate zones. You will learn to access, quality-control, and analyse climate datasets from satellites, reanalysis, and observational networks. Statistical methods such as frequency analysis, trend detection, and probability distributions become tools in your workflow. You will interpret model outputs, apply downscaling, and communicate projection uncertainty. The course also covers drought indices, heat-stress metrics, flood frequency analysis, and wind and solar resource assessment. By the end, you will be able to conduct and present climate risk assessments for agriculture, infrastructure, water, and public health sectors.

Your lessons are perfect. I purchased the one-year package and finally have the opportunity to follow various topics of interest without needing to change platforms... I'm grateful for everything you do, I've already recommended you to other people...

I like how the lessons are straight to the point and how I can change chapters and skip content I don't need.

I like the content and the way videos are presented and transcribed, which speeds up the process!

The platform is fast, simple to use. The diversity of content and complementary videos really help with learning.
