Differential Equations in the Earth System

Course material for the lecture "Differential Equations in the Earth System" (WS 2019/2020) at the Institute of Geosciences (Department of Geophysics), Christian-Albrechts-University Kiel

Homepage "Differential Equations in the Earth System" lecture

This lecture will be based on the "Practical Numerical Methods with Python" course by Lorena A. Barba, Ian Hawke, Bernard Knaepen:

Practical Numerical Methods with Python

and the "CFD Python: the 12 steps to Navier-Stokes equations" course by Lorena A. Barba, Gilbert F. Forsyth:

CFD Python: the 12 steps to Navier-Stokes equations

Barba, Lorena A., and Forsyth, Gilbert F. (2018). CFD Python: the 12 steps to Navier-Stokes equations. Journal of Open Source Education, 1(9), 21, https://doi.org/10.21105/jose.00021
