3. interactive simulation of an investigation of a suspected contaminated land site very close to real-world scenarios students form environmental consulting companies have to operate within a given budget use interviews and various environmental testing strategies to pinpoint the source and type of contamination Report on the findings of their ‘company’ http://www.ccnmtl.columbia.edu/projects/brownfield/

5. Exploring the Poles First Year Seminar Uses turn-of-the-century Arctic and Antarctic expeditions to explore leadership, teamwork, preparation, decisions under uncertainty role of the environment and environmental change Readings: first author, comparative analysis, novelized Fridtjof Nansen’s Farthest North Roland Huntford’s The Last Place on Earth (Amundsen and Scott) Alfred Lansing’s Endurance (Shackelton) Multimedia approach Simulated expedition teams On line journals https://courseworks.columbia.edu/cms/outview/courseenter.cfm?no=FYSBX1566_001_2002_3

11. Environmental Data Analysis - EESC BC 3017 Multidisciplinary approaches to environmental problem-solving Acquisition, analysis and presentation of real- time and historical environmental data Assessment of spatial and temporal variability Use of statistical software packages for analysis and display 3 main data sets (= projects): Atmospheric Ozone in NYC Outdoor particulate matter in NYC air Indoor air pollution http://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/~martins/eda.html

12. Ozone in NYC air

13. Hydrology EESC BC 3025 Discussion of the basic physical principles of the water cycle (evaporation, condensation, precipitation, runoff, stream flow, percolation, and groundwater flow), as well as environmentally relevant applications based on case studies. Studio approach, including Lectures Group discussions Classroom demonstrations Data analysis Field trips Laboratory excercises http://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/~martins/hydro.html
