Modeling, Data Analysis and Numerical Techniques for Geochemistry

 

The topic for each lecture runs down the middle of the table, on the left are links to the HTML lecture notes and on the right links to the PDF chapters. Clicking on the individual lecture number will take you to the HTML lecture notes. The lecture number refers to actual sequential number of the lecture this year, do not be alarmed if the HTML page doesn't have the same NUMBER. But if the topic is wrong, let the web-page authors know. Clicking on the individual chapter numbers will take you to the PDF file of that particular chapter (if available). Underneath each PDF link is the date that chapter was compiled, this date also appears in the header of each odd numbered pages.
