Kurzbeschreibung | This course is a mixture between a seminar primarily for PhD and postdoc students and a colloquium involving invited speakers. It consists of presentations and subsequent discussions in the area of modeling complex socio-economic systems and crises. Students and other guests are welcome. | ||||
Lernziel | Participants should learn to get an overview of the state of the art in the field, to present it in a well understandable way to an interdisciplinary scientific audience, to develop novel mathematical models for open problems, to analyze them with computers, and to defend their results in response to critical questions. In essence, participants should improve their scientific skills and learn to work scientifically on an internationally competitive level. | ||||

Skript | There is no script, but a short protocol of the sessions will be sent to all participants who have participated in a particular session. Transparencies of the presentations may be put on the course webpage. | ||||
Literatur | Literature will be provided by the speakers in their respective presentations. | ||||
Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Participants should have relatively good mathematical skills and some experience of how scientific work is performed. | ||||
651-1694-00L | Seminar in Seismology | 0 KP | 1S | S. Wiemer, D. Fäh, D. Giardini | |
Kurzbeschreibung | Short seminars on a variety of popular topics in Seismology. The seminars present current problems and research activities in the seismological community. | ||||
Lernziel | Understanding of a broad scope of current problems and state-of-the-art practice in seismology. | ||||
651-3440-02L | Geophysics III Dieser Kurs ersetzt 651-3440-02 Geomagnetism. Sofern Geomagnetism absolviert wurde, darf die Lerneinheit Geophysik III nicht absolviert werden. | 4 KP | 3G | A. Jackson, P. Tackley, S. Wiemer, T. Kraft | |
Kurzbeschreibung | This course builds on Geophysik I and Geophysik II, broadening the students' education in seismology, geodynamics and geodynamo theory, by considering various specific topics of particular interest. | ||||
Lernziel | To teach students the basics of observational seismology, earthquake source seismology, seismotectonics and the principle of seismic tomography, mantle convection over Earth history, structure of the oceanic and continental lithosphere, plate tectonics, hotspots, global heat flux, dynamo operation and magnetic field generation in Earth, planets, the Sun and stars and electromagnetism to probe the mantle. | ||||

651-4271-00L | Erdwissenschaftliche Datenanalyse und Visualisierung mit Matlab Information für Studierende des D-INFK: Der Kurs darf nur von Bachelor-Studierenden im 3. Semester belegt werden. | 3 KP | 3G | S. Wiemer, G. De Souza | |
Kurzbeschreibung | Die Vorlesung und dazugehörige Übung geben den Studierenden eine Einführung in die Konzepte und Werkzeuge der wissenschaftlichen Datenanalyse. Anhand von praktischen erdwissenschaftlichen Problemstellungen werden in Kleingruppen und Einzelarbeit Aufgaben von wachsender Komplexität mit der Software MATLAB gelöst. Dabei lernen die Studierenden auch, Datensätze effektvoll zu visualisieren. | ||||
Lernziel | Die folgenden Konzepte werden vorgestellt: - Arbeiten mit Matrizen und Arrays - Programmieren und Algorithmenentwicklung - Effektvolle Datenanalyse und Visualisierung in 2D und 3D - Animationen sinnvoll einsetzen - Einen Datensatz statistisch erfassen - Regressionsanalysen - Testen von Hypothesen |
