Good topic, good job simplifying it.

These lessons are very well presented. They are even accessible on my Windows phone so I can study anytime, anywhere.

Starts off simple enough but all of a sudden introduces terms and unlabelled charts with no explanation of what they mean. What is an adiabat? Why is coriolus affected by velocity? Seems like there's a lot of assumed knowledge here. Also, the quiz seems to have questions relating to aspects i can't even recall being talked about. And some broken images. Luckily, i fluked my way through with some good guesses. It would be painful having to listen to the whole lesson again rather than going back for a quick skim-read.

Good but challenging for a lay person with high school physical geography for several years back!

The was resented fairly clearly. I struggled with some of the questions and wish they were explicitly stated in the Webcast.

this is on the job training for me.

This is a short but informative lesson, the information is easy to retain.

This lesson was very helpful in explaining flow interaction with topography. I did not understand flow interaction and found it confusing prior to taking this module. It was very helpful.

Awesome

Helps to understand why a weather system builds up in front of a mountain

very nice

Course was a useful refresher.

well done

Good Module, basic but informative

arusse27 2017-01-17 11:44:41

Generally helpful lesson, though I would have preferred that certain terms like "static stability" and "stratification" were defined prior to using.

I think that in video talk very fast, and I'm not native speak. Then I needed read all the slides to do a complete understanding.

Animations and conceptual information is interesting, but there's a big gap between the very basic and the very technical here--I'd like to see that gap filled or to see the course focus on more conceptual information with less technical terminology.

wbriskey 2015-01-02 11:35:59

Great explanations - just enough science and just the right amount of simplification. Wasn't sure it was over or not because there was no summary and it just stopped at the end of section 9. I guess it left me wanting more.

Useful information

Very clear explanation and useful animation to understand the flow motions.

Al final de este módulo podrá: 1. Describir cómo el flujo interactúa con la topografía. 2. Enumerar los factores que determinan la interacción. Objetivos específicos Al final de este módulo podrá: 1. Enumerar los factores que determinan la interacción entre el flujo y la topografía. 2. Describir el número de Froude en términos de velocidad del viento, dirección del viento, estabilidad estática y altura de la montaña. 3. Describir las interacciones del flujo con una cadena montañosa ancha para flujos de número de Froude altos y bajos. 4. Recordar cómo el flujo responde frente a una montaña individual alta. 5.
