b. Formulation spécifique pour cette activité des AA du programme
By the end of the LBRTI2102 module, students will be able to:
· Name, describe, explain the theoretical concepts related to the mechanistic approach to analyse and model environmental processes; · Explain mathematical concepts and use computational tools to model the space-time dynamics of these processes; · Use these concepts and tools in an operational fashion in order to model the processes that drive realistic environmental systems in the context of an individual project; · Present a detailed justification of the methodological choices that have been made to analyse the system under study; · Write a brief report, with a solid discussion based on the modelling results and appropriately illustrated with graphs and charts, using accurate and appropriate scientific vocabulary. |
