Climate Modeling in "Introduction to Computational Thinking"

This introductory course on computational thinking uses the Julia programming language to approach real-world problems in varied areas, applying data analysis and computational and mathematical modeling. In this class you will learn computer science, software, algorithms, applications, and mathematics as an integrated whole. Topics include image analysis, particle dynamics and ray tracing, epidemic propagation, and climate modeling.

View the course here. It includes a complete set of with lecture videos, Julia notebooks, and homework assignments. Climate modeling is covered in class sessions 20-25.

Instructors: Prof. Alan Edelman, Prof. David P. Sanders, Grant Sanderson, Dr. James Schloss, and Henri Drake
