What you’ll be able to do

  • Test hypotheses about geoscientific processes by applying statistical methods to real-world data

  • Apply appropriate statistical analyses that can be used to address specific problems in climatological analysis

  • Carry out statistical analysis of digitized atmospheric, oceanic, and other geoscientific datasets, including parsing through and analyzing large data sets

  • Critically evaluate the results of climatological data analyses including identifying alternate interpretations of the results, other techniques that could be applied to investigate results, and sources of independent data that could be used to corroborate results

  • Critique the application of statistical analyses in existing climate literature

  • Test hypotheses about geoscientific processes by applying statistical methods to existing data

  • Identify appropriate statistical analyses to address specific problems in climatological analysis

  • Carry out statistical analysis of atmospheric, oceanic, and other geoscientific datasets

  • Evaluate the results of climatological data analyses of specific problems, including relating results to other statistical techniques or to alternate data sets

  • Understand the application of statistical analyses in existing climate literature
