Presentation transcript:

Term project Apply statistical data analysis techniques to atmospheric, oceanic, geophysical, geological or planetary science datasets. Identify a topic (due next Friday, 2/16) Identify datasets, preliminary analysis (due 3/9) Perform analysis, write a 5-10 pages report (due 4/13) This/next week – identify a topic Think about what you want to focus on. Contact EAS faculty and ask suggestions for possible data sources.

Some term projects from last year Statistical analysis of deep earthquakes in Western Washington State to locate the subducting Juan De Fuca Plate. An analysis of sea ice concentration during the winter months in Antarctic and Arctic from 1973 to 2016
