CLIMATE CHANGES
(objectives)
The course of study aims to provide knowledge to understand the mechanisms that determine the natural variability of the climate system and the causes of the ongoing climate change induced by the use of fossil fuels and land use change. The course aims to provide 1) in-depth knowledge of the global climate system (atmosphere-hydrosphere-cryosphere-lithosphere); 2) to provide knowledge on natural climatic variations and the causes of climate change induced by anthropogenic forcing on a short-medium term scale (from ten days to million years) from historical and geological archives; 3) provide knowledge on future scenarios of climate change globally and in Italy.
