A Holistic Course in the Science of Climate Change: Physical Science using elementary Math Modeling (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781533152206)

A Holistic Course in the Science of Climate Change is a comprehensive look at the physical science involved in the topic of world wide climate change and is supported by elementary math modeling techniques using Excel. This book targets the learner who wants step by step instruction in the use of Excel to understand from the most basic levels how climate change is effecting our planet. The text combines physical science principles, environmental studies in the Earth's atmosphere, oceans, and climate changes to paint a mathematically based picture of data analysis through the use of Excel, raw science data, and the use of inductive and deductive reasoning techniques to support critical thinking exercises. This text ascribes to the philosophy that teaching science by using basic math modeling mathematics is a holistic endeavor. The mathematics that support this work are done using Excel, so no background in anything other than very basic elementary algebra is required.
