    ESS 21: On Thin Ice - Climate Change and the Cryosphere

    ESS 21: On Thin Ice - Climate Change and the Cryosphere

    In recent decades we have observed a significant reduction of the cryosphere due to anthropogenic climate change. The observed and predicted changes in the extent and amount of snow and ice will have major impacts on climate, ecosystems and human populations both at a local and global scale. This course will introduce students to the science behind climate change as well as the physical and chemical processes that govern components of the cryosphere, including snow, permafrost, sea ice, glaciers and ice sheets. Particular emphasis will be placed on the important role that each component plays in the larger climate system and potential feedbacks. We will also examine some of the social, economic and political impacts that the melting cryosphere will have on countries around the Arctic and also worldwide, such as access to new petroleum reserves, infrastructure damage due to melting permafrost, sea level rise and decreases in freshwater availability.

    Chem 125: Advanced Organic Chemistry

    Chem 125: Advanced Organic Chemistry

    This is a 28-lecture junior/senior-level undergraduate-level course titled "Advanced Organic Chemistry" taught at UC Irvine by Professor James S. Nowick. The course builds upon the concepts and skills learned in a typical yearlong sophomore-level organic chemistry class. Topics include: The Chemical Literature and Databases; Stereochemistry and Structural Organic Chemistry; Synthetic Organic Chemistry; Mechanistic and Physical Organic Chemistry; NMR Spectroscopy. The course follows closely to the textbook Intermediate Organic Chemistry, 3rd edition, by Ann M. Fabirkiewicz and John C. Stowell. The course website is: https://eee.uci.edu/16s/40914/ Any questions or concerns regarding this class, please e-mail: jsnowick@uci.edu.
