Lecture notes of the Environmental Science master unit ENVI5809, taught to 2nd semester students at the University of Sydney.
The course is available from the following Jupyter-Book.
This lecture is tailored for a semester-long class, but these notes might also be of interest to other (envi-) scientists wanting to learn how to query, analyse and visualise scientific dataset.
These notes are written as a companion to the lectures. During class, I will go through the major concepts and techniques for querying, analysing environmental datasets available from observing systems and models, and you can use these notes for independent learning. As a result most of the lectures and practicals will revolve around hands-on exercises and applications.
They are actualised on the go, as this course advances. I am trying to write them in such a way that they are understandable without actually attending the course, but I strongly recommend to participate to both the lectures and the practicals.
The notes are a mix of examples and small exercises for you to try. They are written in Jupyter Notebooks.
